Our Stories, on Rotation: Conversations at Gardens
Our Stories, On Rotation returns for its third edition—an intimate afternoon of books, conversations and connection, celebrating the stories and lived experiences that shape the place we call home.
Rotate among discussion tables, each centred on a different book with a short reading and conversation prompt. Whether the book is familiar or entirely new to you, each table offers a welcoming entry point. As you move from table to table, you'll encounter new perspectives, connect with fellow readers, and spend time with narratives that invite us to listen more closely to one another.
