Issue 03 has just landed hot off the press and we are truly wondering why this is the first time we have heard of Soft Stir - an independent, Sydney-based publication examining art, music, culture, and philosophy through the eyes of diverse and emerging Australian creatives.

We adore anyone making print magazines so naturally we adore the Soft Stir team. The latest edition explores the theme of ‘collision’ bringing together forty-five diverse creatives to bring fresh perspectives of Australia's rising talents. A kaleidoscope of culture, balanced with issues everyone should and needs to know about. Impeccable design led by Alex Stevenson, editing by Chloe Hayman and Henry Chase Richards as well as First Nation Curator, Jazz Money, plus a swath of incredible contributors. Soft Stir is stocked in galleries, design bookstores, publishing fairs and independent art spaces or check them out online here. If there was ever a time to support independent, upcoming creatives it would be now so all there is left to say is get a copy and congratulations Soft Stir. We’re cheering for you.
