Writing for children: memory and make-believe

Ever wanted to write for children? Join Billilla Studio Artist, Cassy Polimeni, for a creative writing workshop designed to tap into the power of memory and the magic of imagination through a series of fun writing prompts to get ideas flowing. You will leave the workshop with a goldmine of new material ready to develop, along with guidelines for developing it into a children's story.

Cassy Polimeni is a children's author and current Billilla Studio Artist. Her books, including The Garden at the End of the World and Ella and the Amazing Frog Orchestra, have been longlisted for the CBCA Book of the Year and shortlisted for the Wilderness Society Environment Prize for Children's Literature.

Bring paper or a laptop for your writing.
