About this Event
Join award-winning facilitator and former academic librarian Naomi Baudelaire - Smith for a unique reading and reflection series inspired by The Creative Act by Rick Rubin. Through conversation, reading and gentle creative practice, we'll explore creativity as a way of engaging more deeply with ourselves, our communities and the world around us.
The Visionary Book Club is designed for readers, thinkers, creatives and the simply curious. Each session centres on a different theme, creating space for reflection, discussion and shared learning in a welcoming and supportive environment. Participants are invited to engage with ideas through conversation, journalling, note-making, poetry or other creative responses, with no previous experience required.
