Join the multi-award-winning writers of Sweatshop Literacy Movement for a celebration of Love, a mesmerising new anthology of stories, poems and essays by 35 writers from Indigenous, migrant and refugee backgrounds.

In this powerhouse presentation, The Love Fest combines a critical dialogue between anthology editor Shirley Le and award-winning novelist Winnie Dunn with a series of reading performances from acclaimed contributors Tyree Barnette, Natalia Figueroa Barroso, Mark Mariano and Daniel Nour.

Journey through dingy streets and pristine sunsets, delve deep into the tormented soul and uncover that big crazy thing called the human heart.
