Arts Margaret River Readers and Writers Festival was a great success this past weekend. Over 1000 children enjoyed visits from an author and an illustrator; the sessions were held in the schools and very positive feedback received from parents whose kids attended.

 

Arts Margaret River manager Hal Martin sent a heartfelt thanks to the club for its continuing partnership that has contributed $5000 towards development of youth theatre programs and $1000 ongoing sponsorship of Young Readers & Writers. The club’s willingness to assist keeping the arts alive in our community is greatly appreciated.
