Description

Come and try Shared Reading in a special evening session.

Drawing on bibliotherapy to support wellbeing, Shared Reading brings people together to enjoy short stories and poems in a welcoming group.

A trained facilitator reads aloud, pausing for conversation on themes of life, love and resilience. There’s no preparation or pressure to participate. It’s not quite a book club, but a chance to be read to, share your thoughts and connect with others.

Refreshments provided.

Age: Adults 18+

Price: FREE

Bookings: Bookings essential – spaces are limited. Bookings open 2 weeks before the event.

This session is facilitated by PJ Edwards, a qualified Shared Reading Facilitator and social bibliotherapy practitioner. Social Bibliotherapy uses literature that is read aloud in group settings to promote health, wellbeing and connection. PJ is passionate about inclusive Shared Reading programs that focus on joy, wellness and social connection.

Tickets for good, not greed Humanitix dedicates 100% of profits from booking fees to charity

City of PAE Library programs and events are held on the traditional lands of the Kaurna People of the Adelaide Plains. We pay respect to Elders past and present. We respect their spiritual beliefs and connections to land which are of continuing importance to the living Kaurna people of today. We further acknowledge the contributions and important role that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people continue to play within our shared community.
