Sisteria is a podcast about women & non-binary creatives’ experiences as
creators & consumers of arts & culture.

In each episode, host and producer Stephanie Van Schilt shines a spotlight on the work of a different Australian woman or non-binary creative, delving into how gender and culture influences their creative practice and engagement with the arts. Sisteria is co-produced by Jessica Lukjanow.

Across multiple seasons, Sisteria has featured conversations with writers, comedians, musicians, poets, designers, actors, tattooists, activists, artists and editors, covering topics including mental health, motherhood, politics, sport and dating etiquette.

Our theme music is “Last” by Rainbow Chan, from her album Spacings.
