Michael Green and Jon Tjhia are in Wellington as part of Te Whare Hēra Eavesdropping Residency.
In a special LitCrawl taster session, writers offer their creative responses to the exhibition Eavesdropping. Hear new writing from novelists Annaleese Jochems and Catherine Robertson, and poets Nikki Lee Birdsey and Ruby Solly. Chaired by Claire Mabey (Verb/LitCrawl).
Plus a live performance from ‘sentimental synth-pop’ producer and songwriter Lake South.
Bar and galleries open at 5pm, there will be supper treats available for purchase from The Greek Food Truck, Tuatara beers, Seresin Estate wine, and sounds from Radio Active DJ Antsman.
