BEAKER STREET

SCIENCE, ART, COMMUNITY IN TASMANIA

Interested in our upcoming Fermented As Anything workshops? Click here for details and tickets.

Beaker Street is a scientist-run social enterprise based in Tasmania.

Feel like playing with a microscope at a pub? Chatting about evolution with a world-leading scientist? Meeting some new and interesting people?

You've come to the right place.

We host events, workshops, talks, discussions, and create interactive spaces where everyone is invited to participate in scientific discovery.

Every August for the Beaker Street festival, we turn the Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, and some of Hobart's most iconic spaces and places, into a scientific wonderland for adults. Want to learn more? Keep on scrollin'

The Beaker Street festival is a celebration of science and art in Tasmania.

"More engaging and interactive than anything I've done anywhere else in Australia. Especially leading a dancing, New Orleans-style jazz band into the museum, followed by a few hundred people."

— Dr Karl
