Centre for Stories
Building on from the success of the Liminal workshop with Leah McIntosh, the Centre for Stories is pleased to host another meeting. This time we will have a get together for people who want to start a journal.
This will be an introduction for emerging practitioners on how to get a publication up and running. So far, we have focused on writers in particular, and, also supported editors. This time we want to encourage the whole ecosystem to flower. What that means is getting people in a room and talking about the next steps in a collective journey to establish your own publication.
We need photographers, writers, journalists, editors, administrators, graphic designers, social media communicators, and friends to come along and find a way to collaborate. This is about working together to make the Perth literary scene even more vibrant.
You can come along by filling out the form below, and, we will let you know if your application to attend has been accepted.
Please note, this is a private event by invitation only. If you are interested in participating, please email info@centreforstories by 14 August 2019 with your inquiry.
