Join us for a magical Story Picnic as we celebrate Tasmania Reads 2025!

We’re lucky to have award-winning author Lucy Christopher as our first writer-in-residence at the Art Farm Birchs Bay. Come and meet Lucy and hear about her incredible range of stories – she’s written books for every age!

Bring your picnic rug, your favourite snacks, and settle in for a delightful afternoon of stories, laughter, and fun. Whether you’re enjoying a good book in the sunshine or listening to captivating tales being read aloud, it’s the perfect way to relax and unwind.

Kids, come dressed as your favourite book character for a chance to win a special book voucher prize thanks to Fullers Bookshop!

So grab your book, pack your picnic basket, and don’t forget your imagination—it’s going to be a unique day of stories and sculptures. See you there!

While this event is free, entry to Art Farm Birchs Bay is $5 per person or $10 per family. Payment can be made at the entry by card or cash.
