Create4Adelaide Youth Workshops: Poetry and Extinction with Chris Best
Event description
Create4Adelaide, presented by the Adelaide Festival, is excited to invite 16 - 22 year-olds to join Christian Best at the South Australian Museum.
Christian Best is a writer and storyteller taking up space on Kaurna Land. In these workshops, Chris will be guiding participants through creating a work of poetry or writing for Create4Adelaide that is inspired by discussion about climate change and its implications. Drawing on the South Australian Museum’s biological sciences collections, participants will be encouraged to respond to C4A’s first priority: extinction of plants and animals.
Launched in 2023, Create4Adelaide is a large-scale, year-long project that encourages young people to develop their creative skills and engage with local climate change priorities. All created works will be submitted to Create4Adelaide’s open call.
All queries are to be directed to Create4Adelaide’s Project Manager, Caitlin Ellen Moore cmoore@adelaidefestival.com.au.
