Description

The 2025 Words on the Waves Writers Festival Opening Address will launch the festival's fifth celebratory year here on the Central Coast. Three acclaimed speakers will each ponder the festival theme: burning bright. Esteemed social psychologist and 'national treasure' Hugh Mackay has always sensed the winds of change before anyone else. Wiradjuri man and public intellectual Stan Grant will share a personal and poetic paean to peace, forgiveness and 'deep respect'. And much-loved, much-respected journalist Kumi Taguchi will take us on a highly evocative journey of understanding. Don't miss this inspiring event. Local independent bookseller, Umina Beach Book Nook, will be on site on the evening to sell copies of authors' books for signing after the event.
