Join prize-winning writer and poet Robyn Sykes for a workshop to help you create characters to remember. Learn how to distil the essence of your characters; how to turn characters into people who think, feel, act on emotions… people who are rational, irrational, quirky and real.
Bring pen and paper and an open mind.

Where: The Hub
Cost: $10 per head, $15 for two if you bring a friend

Sun30Sep20181.30 for 2pmCafe on Queen, 15 Queen St, Binalong
Cafe on Queen is a iconic building in Binalong. Over a century in age, it formerly operated as a General Store. It is also the site of the former Binalong Tea Rooms.
Part of the character of the place is the numerous nooks and crannies where people can congregate or be alone. Fancy lunch/coffee/cakes in the garden on a warm spring day? Or a toastie around the wood heater on a frosty morning? Or some great poetry in the old glassblower's studio out the back.
If it's poetry you are after, Sunday September 30 is your lucky day!
On that auspicious day, Binalong Arts Group presents the inaugural Cafe on Queen version of A Brush with Poetry, formerly held at the Black Swan. Do yourself a favour and BE THERE! 1.30 for 2pm. Free open mike. Donations appreciated.
