Books will be available for sale at the event with Book Face Erina joining us for the morning. A morning tea will be available after the event, with thanks to Brentwood Village.
Tickets are FREE thanks to the partnership between Words on the Waves and Keyton/Brentwood Village, as well as our wonderful team of volunteers who help with these events. The cafe will be open prior to the event if you want to grab a coffee to bring in with you.
As part of Words on the Waves Writers Festival we have introduced Central Coast Reads, a community-wide reading program consisting of book clubs and author talks. The aim is to not only encourage reading and social and human connections through a love of books, but also to establish the Central Coast region as a region of ‘readers’ on the cultural map of Australia.
