This year’s OUR WORDS program will weave words across oceans, peek behind the curtain of theatre making and celebrate award-winning fiction.
Join First Nations poets, writers, creatives and thought leaders from across the state, country and globe for another year of conversations to contemplate, provoke and inspire.
The event consists of three panels:
WOVEN (10:00am-11:30am)
This unique hybrid literary panel will bring together acclaimed international artists Leanne Betasamosake Simpson and Joy Harjo and their renowned poetic collaborators Natalie Harkin and Ali Cobby Eckermann. Hosted by editor Anne-Marie Te Whiu, this gathering will celebrate the powerful gift of Indigenous reciprocity within the Woven anthology (Magabala Books 2024).
PRAISED (12:30pm-1:30pm)
Writer and academic, Dr Eugenia Flynn, is joined in hybrid conversation with Stella Prize-winning author, Alexis Wright, to talk about literary epics, award winning words and international acclaim.
STAGED (2:00pm-3:00pm)
Accomplished screen and stage writer, Tracey Rigney speaks with emerging South Australian playwrights Sonya Rankine, Jannali Jones and Kyron Weetra about creative process and the art of telling a story on stage.
