Hi everyone. We're really excited to have secured two of New Zealand's best authors for our Writers and Readers Weekend 2018 in Oamaru.
Catherine Chidgey and Kate Camp are both multi-award winning writers and are both longlisted for this year's New Zealand Book Awards.
The creative writing workshop has already sold out! There are two other events to attend -
That 'Inviolate Place' is on at The Inkbox on Friday 16th Feb - an intimate Q&A with each author interviewing the other.
Early Bird tickets from The Opera House are $20 plus service fees (General Admission $25 plus service fees).
