Swim: A Creative Nonfiction Workshop

Annette Lees’ book Swim is a collection of stories gathered from people all over Aotearoa who share a passion for dipping into our wild waters. Annette’s diary of a year of swimming documents the history and future of our passion for rivers, lakes, water holes, creeks, wetlands and oceans.

Join the author and fellow travel writer, Ingrid Horrocks, for an (optional) dip in Island Bay followed by warming hot drinks and a workshop on creative non-fiction inspired by travel and nature.

Sea swim at 10.30am; hot drinks and workshopping starts at 11am. Bring warm clothes to change into!

Includes hot drinks and biscuits.
