Release your inner creativity in a series of workshops & explore the art of writing.

 

Following the hugely successful Inaugural Newstead Young Writers Festival at the Newstead Arts Hub and the RedShed, Newstead Writers invite young people 15-18 years, to be part of this exciting series of workshops with award-winning local writer Cate Kennedy. Younger writers are welcome to apply as well, and we have set aside some tickets for older writers too.

Dates: Sat 14 December 2-4pm and Sat 15 February 2-4pm, plus a zoom session in-between.

Cate’s work has been published in The New Yorker, shortlisted for the Australian Literary Gold Medal, and The World Beneath was awarded the People’s Choice prize at the NSW Premier’s Literary Awards. Her work includes poetry, short stories and novels. Her two short story collections have been texts on the VCE syllabus for some years and she is in demand as a fiction writing teacher and mentor. She loves the structure and surprises of narrative prose and poetry and completed her PhD in Creative Writing in 2021.

You will be supported through your holiday writing goal in this eight-week writing project as Cate works with you, exploring the principles of great writing as you release your inner creativity.

Cate will host two workshops at the Newstead Arts Hub and the RedShed, over the summer school holidays, with a Zoom check-in half way along.

Price: $80 for young writers (10 tickets); $100 for older writers (5 tickets).
