Hi everyone. We're really excited to have secured two of New Zealand's best authors for our Writers and Readers Weekend 2018 in Oamaru.

Catherine Chidgey and Kate Camp are both multi-award winning writers and are both longlisted for this year's New Zealand Book Awards.

The creative writing workshop has already sold out! There are two other events to attend -
That 'Inviolate Place' is on at The Inkbox on Friday 16th Feb - an intimate Q&A with each author interviewing the other.

Early Bird tickets from The Opera House are $20 plus service fees (General Admission $25 plus service fees).

The Literary Picnic is a FREE, family friendly event at the Janet Frame House (56 Eden St) on Sunday 18th Feb. Tea, coffee and homemade lemonade provided. Brings rugs, seat and snacks.

These are two incredible writers at the very top of their game. It's going to be amazing. Don't miss out!
