Join us at the Pearl Room as we facilitate a "Living Library" to demystify and educate 
our community on the reality of a life with AIDS and what that means in today's world. 
Instead of borrowing a physical book,come and "borrow" on of our real life books, 
and ask questions you may not have had the opportunity of doing so before. 

The following "books" will be available for loan on the evening:

An Indigenous person with a HIV positive diagnosis.
A female carer (past or present) of those with AIDS.
A Senior Citizen who has lost their friendship circle/family to AIDS.
A person from the Australian Federation of AIDS organisations.
