Dear Em

Sunday 2 August

"Dear Em is a youth-led organisation working to prevent sexual violence by empowering young people to become leaders and create change in their communities. We believe in using storytelling and collective care to challenge harmful systems and imagine safer futures.

Connecting with our community through events, workshops, and creative spaces is central to what we do. Listening to people’s lived experiences and making space for shared reflection helps shape both our advocacy and our work.

We are excited to showcase a collection of handmade zines created by our team. From poems and letters to field guides, stickers, and mini art booths, each piece will explore themes of identity, resistance, healing, and/or hope.

Our zines are made to spark conversation and remind people they are not alone. We hope you see parts of yourself in these pages, and feel inspired to imagine the world we’re working towards together."
