SUMMARY:'How We Made It Through'
DESCRIPTION:A celebration of our community thrutopia creative writing project. ‘How We Made It Through’ invited people to create stories from the future where we’ve made it through – hence ‘thrutopia’. Over thirty individual entries were received\, in media ranging from prose to poetry\, & from collage to needle felting.  \nLearn about the project design and how it can be easily replicated; listen to readings from the anthology; an option to buy your own copy; & reflect on what thrutopia can look like in your own locality. \nNo minimum age requirement. \nCopies of the book will be available for a donation.
