About the presenter: The Nest Youth Group
The Nest Youth Group is a community project close to the hearts of our three facilitators Alex, Amelia, and Lena. Growing up transgender, and working with young people who are gender questioning, or gender diverse. We are so happy to be able to create this space that not only we wish we had growing up, but also that we see is missing from the Adelaide LGBT+ scene. There are multiple transgender social groups for people 15 years and older. However, for people who start to question their gender at a younger age and their families, there isn't much support available.
Everyone deserves a place to feel safe, understood, and free to be themselves. Even at this age when it feels like no adult could possibly understand you. This is a youth led social group. There are no lectures or structured lessons. Just a place to have fun!

Feast Festival acknowledges that we gather, create and celebrate on the traditional lands of the Kaurna people.
We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, and recognise First Nations peoples as the original storytellers, artists and custodians of this land.
We honour and respect queer First Nations communities, including Sistagirls and Brothaboys, and recognise the enduring connection between culture, identity, community and Country.
Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be Aboriginal Land.
