Event Description

Featuring Eileen Chong. All ages and levels of experience welcome.

This workshop will explore what it means to be 'Chinese'? How does the notion of 'Chinese-ness' translate into our everyday lives here in Australia? Eileen Chong will read some of her own poetry in English which examines these questions. The workshop will also draw on Ultimo Library's collection of Chinese poetry, art, history and culture to explore how these ideas can help inspire and inform the writing of poetry in English.
