Research Symposium 2023

Powerhouse generates knowledge through the fusion of the applied arts and sciences. Join our embedded researchers as they present a full day of talks about everything from vintage board games, climate change fashion, the indie music scene of the ’90s, the musicality of lace and the transnational relationships of food and furniture.

Our embedded research fellows delve into the Powerhouse Collection, one of the richest and most diverse museum collections in the world, to discover new ways for us to know the world and ourselves. Come and hear their stories.
