In 2022, the inaugural Regional Scribes program was launched. A four-month online program for 19-24 year olds living in regional and remote areas across Australia in any stage of their writing and storytelling journeys. It aimed to overcome the vastness of space and isolation by coming together virtually with like minded peers across the country.

Each member from Cohort #1 has contributed a piece created or inspired by ideas shared during the program period. These are their stories, poems, plays and songs from this time.

We are proud to celebrate and commemorate their participation in Regional Scribes and recognise this program as one small part of their soon to be illustrious history of storytelling in all its forms.
