“Guardianship of Our Place”: Science Writing

Our experience of place is unique, diverse and very personal. In this session, three writers talk about how the scientific lens has influenced their understanding of the natural world. They discuss how perspective, context and history are expressed through their creative work to enable the Guardianship of (our) place as we face the difficult and troubling times ahead.

This is an event involved in the Featherston Booktown Festival on Friday 10th, Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th May celebrating everything to do with books, writers and reading. The three-day programme includes writing workshops; poetry readings; talks by leading authors and illustrators; and a book fair including stalls with rare and second-hand books. There are also events specifically for children.
