emerging writers’ festival formal ticket giveaway

In celebration of the 25th anniversary of the classic coming-of-age tome (and "most stolen library book") Looking for Alibrandi, the Emerging Writers’ Festival is hosting their very own high school formal. If you rather fancy the idea of a nostalgia trip (and donning your favourite formal gear), then head along to 1000 £ Bend Gallery (361 Little Lonsdale Street, Melbourne) this Saturday at 7pm to guzzle down a cup of punch (which will most definitely be spiked) and confess to your high school crush in the Emerging Writers’ Festival yearbook. Oh, and don't forget to nab a ticket from the EWF website, or (if you’re feeling lucky) send us your details – we’ve got three double passes to formal-loving types to give away.
