Renowned children’s author and education advocate Mem Fox will be the star attraction at the 2023 Wyndham Learning Festival in September.
The Possum Magic writer will help open the festival by reflecting on her 40 year career at the Wyndham Cultural Centre on Friday September 1.
This year’s festival runs until September 7 with the theme: ‘Our Thriving, Creative Community’.
Submissions to hold events at the festival are open now and run through to July 22.
Wyndham councillor Jasmine Hill said the event would send the message that education is for everyone.
“The aim of the festival is to bring people together through learning, motivate the
community to try something new and to promote lifelong learning for all age groups.”
Cr Hill said while this year’s festival would feature a wider array of events and activities than ever before, submissions were still welcome.
“There are still spots available for events, programs and activities.
I encourage learning event and activities holders that haven’t been part of the Wyndham Learning Festival before to find out more and see how you can be part of inspirational
Learning,” she said.
