Our Stories, On Rotation (SG60 Celebration)
Out of stock
Celebrate 60 years of Singapore's literary heritage in this special SG60 edition of Our Stories, On Rotation—an intimate, fast-paced afternoon where books, people, and ideas move.
This gathering invites you to rotate among tables, each offering a short reading session and conversation point drawn from a book that speaks to Singapore’s rich cultural and environmental heritage. Some tables will even be hosted by the authors themselves!
📅 17 Aug (Sun), 3–5pm
📌 MICRO bakery kitchen, 78 Yong Siak Street
🎟️ $17.50 (incl. GST) – includes a beverage + 1 mini quiche + 1 cake slice
💬 From a kampong girl’s quiet vanishing in a time of change, to memories of growing up in a transforming Chinatown; from Malay speculative futures and imagined realms, to orchids as living archives of loss and history, and essays that trace climate and culture through everyday life—we’ll explore titles like:
– Neverness by Fairoz Ahmad
– 17A Keong Saik Road by Charmaine Leung
– Singa-Pura-Pura, edited by Nazry Bahrawi
– The Orchid Folios by Mok Zining
– Eating Chilli Crab in the Anthropocene, edited by Matthew Schneider-Mayerson
– The Singapore I Recognise by Kirsten Han
🍹Cool down with a Pink Lemonade (caffeine-free), be bold with a Black Cold Brew, or have some Classic Teas, all while nibbling on a rotating plate of delectable cake options:
Carrot Cake 🥕
Banana Walnut 🍌
Chocolate Zucchini 🍫
Lemon Yogurt Chai 🍋
Join us for a day of unfolding stories and kindled conversations. This is your chance to meet fellow readers, engage in spirited conversation, and celebrate SG60 through stories that continue to shape us.
