Writing Resistance: The Problem with Fairytales

Writers from the Crip the Lit collective take on ableism in fairytales. From saccharine Disney versions to the deep cultural stories that traverse powerful archetypes, we uncover the true power of magical stories. Join us for never-before-heard new takes on old stories with writers Al Gray, Erin Donohue, Helen Vivienne Fletcher, and hosted by Mandy Hager.

This event will be sign interpreted by NZSL interpreters.

Please Note that due to COVID 19 restrictions, there has been a time change for this event from 1pm to 2pm. All ticket buyers will be notified.
