Love Letters to the Jarrah Forest – Curtin Edition
Description
Love Letters to the Jarrah Forest – Curtin
Writing session with Professor Kingsley Dixon
Write a love letter to your MP to help end forest mining.
Join us on Monday 30 November, 6–7:30pm, for an evening of letter writing for the Northern Jarrah Forest. It’s easier and more fun than you might think.
We’ll gather at Drabble House in Nedlands to write to your MP. You don’t need to be a writer. We’ll provide stationery and a writer’s pack full of prompts, so you can’t get stuck. Tell your MP why you love this forest, and leave with your letter finished.
Hear from Professor Kingsley Dixon
Professor Kingsley Dixon AO will start the evening with a rousing discussion about rehabilitation and the future for Alcoa in the changing international political climate. Then enjoy live acoustic music as we put pen to paper.
Where
6pm – Drabble House, 2 Webster Street, Nedlands
What to bring
Bring a laptop or phone to look up your MP and email a copy of your letter at the end.
What we'll provide
Paper, pens, envelopes, a writer’s pack with prompts and inspiration, and light refreshments (Bring something along if you'll need something substantial to eat)
Why letters?
Right now, the EPA and the WA government are considering Alcoa’s expansion proposal. A personal letter stands out on a politician’s desk in a way a generic email never will. Let’s fill inboxes before the 12 December rally.
Who we are
This evening is hosted by Miles Openshaw and Leith Maddock.
