Text reads "Touching Base 25th anniversary celebration. You're invited to celebrate with us!" Text reads "We’re looking forward to raising a glass to 25 years of advocacy and collective achievements. Born out of the need to connect people with disability and sex workers, we've spent 2.5 decades fighting discrimination, advocating for human rights and challenging attitudinal barriers. This intimacy-positive event in a fully accessible venue will blend a disability expo with a ‘sexpo’. We have a great line up of very special keynote speakers, guest artists and our own house DJ. There will be a delicious afternoon tea along with lucky door prizes, raffles and a silent auction. There will be a live stream of key presentations and speakers for those unable to attend in person. DATE: Sunday 7th December, 2025 VENUE: East Sydney Arts & Community Centre, Burton Street, Darlinghurst (Fully accessible venue) TIME: 1.30pm - 4.30pm" Text reads "Keynote Speakers: The Hon Michael Kirby AC CMG & Ms Rosemary Kayess - Australian Disability Discrimination Commissioner.
