Full Day Workshop with Ursula Dubosarsky and Margrete LamondIn collaboration with NERAM, and as a follow-up to our highly successful 2019 program "Stories Connect", the New England Writers’ Centre is delighted to offer a fantastic creative community workshop featuring both writing and art, based round the acclaimed illustrated book Leaf, Stone, Beetle.
Leaf, Stone, Beetle tells a complex story of displacement and new beginnings through the accessible medium of a touching and imaginative fable which speaks both to adults and to children. Presented by multi-award-winning author and current Australian Children’s Laureate, Ursula Dubosarsky, and publisher, Margrete Lamond, this all-day workshop to be held at NERAM, features discussion, storytelling through metaphor and the creation of new visual and textual narratives by participants, inspired by Leaf, Stone, Beetle. At the end of the workshop, participants will have their own 'dummy book' to take away. Note: Margarete is unable to travel to Armidale, however, we'll be making good use of technology so that she can join us throughout the day, and co-present with Ursula, from her home. |
