    Bob Brown in Conversation

    Saturday 10 August 6.00pm — 7.00pm

    Bangalow A&I Society Hall, 3 Station St, Bangalow NSW 2479
    $35 - General | $30 - Byron Writers Festival Member

    Join Bob Brown, former senator and parliamentary leader of the Australian Greens, for an intimate evening of discussion. What prompted Bob to write a young adult ‘novelette’, and what can it teach us about engaging young people in the fight for Earth’s future?

    Bob Brown’s list of book titles is as long as his list of arrests for environmental action. His most recent book, Thera, is his first work of fiction, but why was it rejected by four publishers? Bob says there is a new revolution in the air and young people are the hope of the Earth. His motto: ‘Don’t get depressed, get active.’ 

    Bob will be joined in conversation by Jan Fran.


    Our Festival Bar will be open from 4pm. We will also have a light meal and snack options.
