Conference
Receptions
On the Friday night you are all invited to a champagne reception at the University of Queensland Art Gallery, where you will have a chance to mingle and chat over light refreshments. As well as viewing the University's fascinating collection of contemporary art, we hope you will enjoy some short artistic presentations from members of the School of English, Media Studies and Art History's postgraduate Creative Writing program.
The cost of the reception is included in your registration fee, and all are welcome.
On the Saturday night we will move to the "Red Room", a new, on-campus pub with stylish interior and picturesque views of the lakes. There will be a fully catered barbeque, with tea, coffee and fruit juice, and we are organising a small bar-tab. Vegetarian burgers will be available. The cost is $15.00.
In previous years the Saturday night function has been greatly enjoyed, and as the venue is within walking distance of the conference, we hope you will all take the opportunity to relax and party after two days of conference going.
There is a place to register for the function on the registration form, but if you have already registered, we can still add you to the list when you sign in to the conference. Of course, we would like as accurate numbers as soon as possible for catering purposes. You can find the registration form here.
