PEN Melbourne

Join poet Alison J Barton and Troppo Print Studio for a hands-on workshop all about different approaches to visual poetry. During the workshop, participants will have the chance to add to a collaborative poem, which will be turned into a paste up poster by Troppo Print Studio, to be unveiled at the end of the workshop. The workshop coincides with the ‘Future Foundations’ exhibition curated by Troppo Print Studio, which celebrates the past, present and future of printmaking and is currently showing at Counihan Gallery.

Hear from these celebrated writers, about the precarity, challenges and strengths of the mid-career phase.

Dress up in your phantasmic finest for an evening of spine-tingling tales, from writers and ghouls alike.

Join us, unplugged, at Fairfield Amphitheatre to hear readings that celebrate these motifs and more, while the foxes take flight overhead. A Spring staple, with a literary twist!
