I’m chuffed to be a featured artist at this year’s NT Writers’ Festival - I’ll be appearing on two events across the weekend (more info below). Check out the full festival program here.
Living with the Past
Saturday 29 June 2024
11:45am - 12:45pm
In a world where there are fewer shared rituals of mourning, but we are frequently exposed to images of destruction online, how do we begin to properly grieve? How does personal loss become intertwined with communal loss? And how does the past continue to make itself felt in the present?
Featuring: Charlotte Wood, Jacinta Halloran, Izzy Roberts-Orr, Debra Dank.
Facilitator: Rita Horanyi.
Reverberations – Poetic Finale
Sunday 30 June 2024
6:30pm - 8:00pm
Closing the festival with a bang, a brilliant lineup of local and interstate artists take to the stage to share words and melodies designed to challenge and inspire. Interspersed with musical meditations by flamenco/jazz fusion guitarist, Francis Diatschenko, this poetic finale to the 2024 NT Writers Festival features everything from lyrical reflections to rousing rhythms and rhymes.
Emilie Zoey Baker, Penny Drysdale, Katharina Fehringer, Raelke Grimmer, Fiona Dorrell, Sandra Thibodeaux, Izzy Roberts-Orr, Julie Janson, Grace Lucas-Pennington, Nicholas Jose and others.
MC: Amy Hetherington.
