A collaborative effort between Melbourne’s literary and ideas hub The Wheeler Centre and Asian-Australian literary project Liminal will see a new festival staged over the weekend of 2-4 August 2024.
This inaugural, three-day event means that Liminal will expand its scope beyond print and the screen. The anti-racist literary platform, which publishes art, criticism and interviews, was founded in late 2016 with a focus on the Asian Australian experience. In its eight years to date, Liminal has run literary events, mentorships, fellowships and national literary prizes for First Nations writers and writers of colour in order to create new spaces and new opportunities.
