DESCRIPTION

Come and meet awesome LGBTI authors, Will Kostakis and Erin Gough, at this exciting event for young people. They’ll be reading their work and talking about the importance of LGBTI stories written for young people.

They’ll be joined by Dr Victoria Flanagan from Macquarie University, a leading researcher and lecturer in gender representations in literature and film.

Explore some of the library’s LGBTI collection of more than 1400 books, films, and zines, chosen for display on the night by young people from Twenty10.

You can also have your voice heard – share your experiences with the authors and other young people, and tell us what else you want to see in the LGBTI collection in your library.

Bursting with creativity?

Join their Zine Making workshop with zine maker, illustrator, YouTuber and trans activist Jesse Anderson.

Bring your ideas and stories to life on your very own page of a special group-zine. 

Be sure to book early as places are limited for this free event.
