Pearl Cove in Harmony

 

PEARL COVE IN HARMONY

Pearl Cove Library would like to invite you to our event, PEARL COVE IN HARMONY, on Harmony Day to celebrate inclusiveness, diversity, and belonging in the Pearl Cove community.

Harmony Day is an annual event in Australia held on 21st March with the central message and slogan, Everyone Belongs.

PEARL COVE IN HARMONY is the first Human Living Library event to be held in Pearl Cove. A Human Library event works like this: the "book" is a person with personal experience in a particular topic, and the "reader" may "read" the book i.e. ask questions and have conversations relating to that topic.

Come and "read" 4 living books from the following communities:

  • LGBTQ        
  • Person with Disability         
  • Refugee         
  • Indigenous Australian

These volunteer books will share their stories and answer your questions. Each "reading" will last 20 minutes.
