Continue celebrating International Women’s Day at Subiaco Library with this panel discussion featuring contributors of Women of A Certain Courage
On Monday 10 March, join the editor of Women of A Certain Courage, Bron Bateman, at Subiaco Library for a panel discussion with three of the book’s contributing authors: Annamaria Weldon, Shannon Meyerkort, and Natalie Damjanovich-Napoleon. Together, these courageous writers will have you reflecting on your own moments of courage, and what courage means to you.
Women of A Certain Courage is an uplifting anthology that follows the long tradition of women supporting and guiding other women. The eighteen stories of courage will have you laughing, crying and celebrating moments of bravery. With tales of activism, finding a voice, escaping domestic violence, battling adversity, and much more, these authors will inspire awe with the myriad ways women prevail and demonstrate courage.
Copies of Women of A Certain Courage will be available for purchase from our friends at Dymocks Subiaco.
Tickets are free, but spaces are limited, so head to the Subiaco Library Eventbrite page to secure your ticket to this unforgettable panel discussion.
