Led by Kath Duncan, (Research Associate/Chairperson, ARC research project, School of Culture and Communication, University of Melbourne), this was a challenging, illuminating and inspiring experience. My imagination was sparked by so many startling and beautiful ideas ..

Poetry work shopping and performance.
