Sydney Writers❜ Festival❜s Family Day 2023

Sydney Writers' Festival's Family Day returns, offering a variety of talks, activities, and performances catered to children of all ages. This action-packed Sunday event features edible bugs, explosions, inflatable bin chickens, and an epic illustrator battle.

Attendees can enjoy Nazeem Hussain and Heath McKenzie discussing their hit series "Hy-larious Hyena," while also exploring the strength of writing partnerships between Kate & Jol Temple and Matt Zeremes & Guy Edmonds. Dive into the world of bugs with Bryan Lessard, and possibly even try eating one, or journey back in time with Katrina Nannestad and Amelia Mellor.

The fun doesn't stop there, as participants are invited to contribute to the creative process of transforming a picture book into a music score, which will then be performed live with Matt Ottley. No matter the adventure chosen, a fantastic day awaits at the Sydney Writers' Festival Family Day!
