Hobart Opportunity
If you know a young person in Hobart who is always cracking jokes, you’ll want to get this on their radar! Class Clowns is returning to The YARC (Youth Arts & Recreation Centre) on Friday, 20 March, and it’s a fantastic (and completely free) opportunity for teens to dive into the world of comedy.

Whether they are interested in stand-up, sketch writing, or just want to build some confidence, they can join a free workshop at 4PM to develop material alongside a professional comedian. It all leads up to a free showcase at 6PM. Young people who are interested in the next step, could then win a chance to perform at Melbourne International Comedy Festival!

Dear Folks of my Huon Valley Community!
You are warmly invited to join me in an exploration of meditation, mindfulness, embodiment and writing.
Whether you write poetry, short stories, articles, diary entries, letters, novels, plays, blog posts or liturgies, you are most welcome.
