General Entry – all ages.

A guided creative writing workshop designed to get the creative juices flowing in a fun, pressure-free environment. Writing exercises, prompts and creative group activities to overcome the terror of the blank page and experiment with new forms and themes. Walk away with more confidence in your writing, and the beginnings of some new poems and short stories to keep working on at home.

Suitable for all ages - adults and kids both welcome. Children under 10 must be accompanied by an adult. Non-participating adults are free of charge.

A professional wordsmith, prolific creative, super solo mum and Autistic woman, Megan J Riedl is a master facilitator of creative workshops. She is an award-winning spoken word poet and feels out loud in a range of mediums including collage, zines, theatre, and podcasting. Combining the personal and political, Megan leads by example in standing up, showing up and speaking up, sharing the messy, human experiences that often go unspoken. Drawing on her background in Secondary Teaching and experience as a theatrical director, writer and performer, Megan offers a creative experience that is inspiring and engaging, as well as educational.

Across Victoria’s Midwest, we acknowledge that we travel across the ancient landscapes of many First Peoples communities. These lands have been nurtured and cared for over tens of thousands of years and we respect the work of Traditional Custodians for their ongoing care and protection.

We recognise the past injustices against Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in this country. As our knowledge grows, we hope that we can learn from their resilience and creativity that has guided them for over 60,000 years. As we invite people to visit and explore Victoria’s Midwest, we ask that alongside us, you also grow to respect the stories, living culture and connection to Country of the Ancestors and Elders of our First Peoples.
