Hi all,

It's been a busy couple of weeks, and it isn't slowing down. Alex Carletti's Silent Auction was a great success, with lots of pieces sold.

And last week's t-shirt exhibtion was a great event, congrats to all involved! If you haven't seen any of the t's yet, pop down and snap one up.

For the most up-to-date info check the blog, or the facebook group, or join the mailing list! Email readingroom.adelaide@gmail.com with 'subscribe' in the subject line.

Here's what's coming up at the reading room...

:: Friday 13th May ::
We welcome our new resident poet, Kathryn Hummel
Kathryn will be in the reading room on a regular basis starting this Friday. She'll be collaborating with visitors and regulars to the reading room, working to create a perforamcne based on what has been created during her residency.
Here's a little info about her:
Having spent several years travelling, working and writing overseas, Kathryn Hummel, a native of Adelaide, is now a PhD candidate at the University of South Australia. Currently she is writing and researching autoethnography, drawing on her experiences of life in Bangladesh, and is in the process of developing a new genre of collaborative prose-poem, inspired by the work of Drik Picture Library and the South Asian Institute of Photography, Pathshala. As well as her poetry, Kathryn’s fiction and non-fiction, popular and academic writing has been published in Australia, the US, Nepal, Bangladesh, and India. A shameless cafe crawler, Kathryn enjoys all types of tea and takes her coffee with milk and one sugar.
