Pride Culture Club: Sapphic Salo(o)n
[The University of Sydney]
Event Reminder
Lesbian Visibility Day 2026

A day without lesbians is like a day without sunshine... so as the days become more cloudy and Lesbian Visibility Day approaches, please join us as we turn the Library into the Lesbrary. The Library, Pride Network, and Diversity & Inclusion present Pride Culture Club: Sapphic Salo(o)n.
Together we’ll explore the rich world of sapphic culture: not only literature and poetry (what is 78% of lesbian culture), but also other aspects of queer experience and storytelling. We’ll be joined by queer scholars sharing original research, and you’ll have the chance to read your favourite sapphic poem or original work of wlw yearning.
This event is not just for lesbians but everyone who loves, supports, uplifts, or is simply curious about sapphic voices. Come along, bring a piece that speaks to you, or just enjoy being read to while we celebrate why sapphic literature continues to be such a powerful, joyful part of our community.
