Red Glow for Writers


Took a group of Year 9 students into Melbourne last Friday.
Inside the Ian Potter Gallery at Flinders Street was this banner advertising the current Melbourne Writers Festival.
There were a number of these banners in different colours with varying, creative images in the upper "head" of the banner.
At the bottom of the photo is a Swedish writer being interviewed.

  1. What a wild looking banner, that should definitely spark a writer's (or anyone's) imagination.

  3. How stylish - writers like all other artists often have to work hard to write what the writer considers to be creative. Yet, the written word has added a spark of creativity to the bannen artist...cool, and I hope the students are equally inspired!
