Description

You are hereby invited to the launch of HIDE, an illuminated verse-narrative chapbook written and illustrated by Rebecca Hawkes. This launch will open with a hybrid performance of poetry and melody, with cellist Emily Winter summoning Medieval music for lambskin slinks and kisses stolen under eclipses.

This new offering from ngā pukapuka pekapeka offers reverence for the fragility of life, predicaments of faith, and the endurance of art.

Please note this venue is not wheelchair accessible.

This event is part of the 2026 Verb Readers & Writers Festival. Please see verbwellington.nz for more information.

Many thanks to our generous funders, sponsors and members of Verb Community in supporting Verb Readers & Writers Festival 2026.
