ABOUT
Book Builders Challenge is a 10-week series of free writing workshops for children aged 8–12yrs. Over 100 participants have collaborated with WA creatives to create an anthology exploring bravery through stories, poems, comics and art since August. The project will culminate in a community book launch and display at Midland Junction Arts Centre 13 - 20 December. Funded by the WA Government, the program builds confidence, creativity, connection and wellbeing.
