About Stranger Encounters 2025: A one-day assembly of interactive creative experiences.
Community development is at the heart of Stranger Encounters.
Set in the historic art hub of Pearl’s Hill Terrace, this one-day gathering blends participatory theatre, immersive art, and shared experiences that spark social connection.
Arrive as strangers, and through a series of creative sessions — spanning movement, storytelling, dance, music, technology, and ritual — and leave having shared moments of curiosity, laughter, and trust.
What begins as an encounter becomes a community.
Each session is designed as a doorway into connection: with yourself, with others, and with the vibrant creative community that calls Pearl’s Hill Terrace home.
Stranger Encounters is hosted by Stranger Conversations, 195 Pearl's Hill Terrace 02-38D, a public living room that makes space for conversations that matter, and nurtures creative ideas. Be part of our community.
