Let us not forget that for the past 30 years, The Substation has been a refuge for the fringe. Before we vacate our beloved home of the arts in July, we want to honour the spirit of The Substation one last time by telling stories from the margins.

Beyond just a theme, SeptFest 2021: In The Margins shines a light on the communities that are amongst us but hidden in plain sight. From the Orang Asli to migrant workers, SeptFest in March charts The Substation’s thirty-year dedication to amplifying the voices that matter.
