Free Event & Launch

Opening Night: New Gold Standard

Stirring up the dust from history’s tomes and reflecting upon our storytelling inheritances, we’ll inhabit, question and critique our literary canon.

To launch the 2018 Emerging Writers’ Festival, some of today and tomorrow’s most exciting and celebrated voices will examine our histories and imagine the stories of the future.

Includes the announcement of the recipients of the Monash Undergraduate Prize for Creative Writing.  

With Timmah Ball, Tony Birch and Neil Morris

Presented in partnership with the Wheeler Centre and Fed Square
