Adventure Zines with Dannika Patterson (10-16)

  • Garden City Library Garden City Shopping Centre Cnr Logan Road &, Kessels Rd Upper Mount Gravatt QLD 4122 Australia (map)
 

Adventure into the world of zines with Author Dannika Patterson.

In this interactive workshop, participants will hone their creative hunting skills, learning a range of techniques to catch ideas throughout their daily adventures and turn them into zines and story-starters!

Using a range of sensory nature prompts around various stations, there'll be a combination of group discussion and individual creative time to record freshly gathered 'wild ideas' and story-starters in various forms. Participants will each create their own 'Adventure Zine' in this workshop, and will walk away with a range of tips, tricks and inspiration to continue their writing adventures!

 

Format

This is a free workshop for young writers aged 10-16 held as part of Brisbane Children’s Writers Festival 2023, in partnership with Brisbane City Council. Bookings are required.
