Words That Stick: Writing and Reading Lab @ Hainsworth Youth Centre

November 20 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm
Free

What makes a story stick with you? A quirky character, a surprising twist, a magical world or something that makes you see things different.

Join Centre for Stories for a fun, creative session where reading sparks new ideas and writing is all about experimenting. We’ll explore short stories, poems and other pieces by writers from Perth and around the world, then try out a bunch of fun writing activities.

From creating characters and playing with different genres to inventing worlds and sparking ideas, there’s plenty of room to let your imagination run wild.

Whether you love reading, writing, or just want to try something new, come along and see where your ideas take you. No experience needed!

This is a workshop for young people in high school or equivalent

No previous experience needed and come as you are
