NZYWF: Everything Pressing, Everything Pertinent: Writing & Reading in Solidarity

Leaning into the visceral, dynamic potential of multi-medium expression for community-building and activism, this short panel and collaborative workshop will equip taiohi (young people) with skills to write and read for the progression of movements and causes close to their hearts. Join Guest Curator Ruby Macomber (Rotuma, Ngāpuhi), Helena Mayer (German, Pākehā), Frances Pavletich and Grace Cowley (Ngāpuhi) as they talk about the movements close to them and how they engage with and create texts to support their activism. Then break into an ‘unconference’ style workshop to put the skills discussed into practice by engaging with and creating pressing and pertinent responses to texts.
