And that's a wrap for another year. Logan BookFest 2025 is done and dusted.

The Ten Penners - a collective of children's story writers

The Ten Penners were in full swing, and I must say, our corner had the most energetic and enthusiastic vibe in the entire hall! We laughed and chatted with people as they approached, wishing everyone a cheerful Merry Christmas. Being the only ones with Christmas decorations and wearing Santa hats or Elf ears, we were impossible to miss. We had such a fun day that we didn't even notice how quickly the time passed. New connections were made, sales were achieved, and everyone had a great time!

Wrapping up the day with a delicious BBQ at a team member's house. What a fantastic way to conclude the day. Thanks to everyone who joined us!

Until next year have a great Christmas and new Year everyone.

As for my KIDS Paint Party Workshop, it was a hoot, and a complete success! A Fun filled day and lots of buzz. With Plenty of happy little smiles and pride in their artwork, especially leaving with lollipops and bubbles. 😁

Best part was presenting one of the children with her winning prize of our Backyard Beasts & Curious Capers books and more sweets. 😁

Jennifer Scicluna' ArtScape - Paint Parties for Kids and Adults

Painting is my first love, teaching it to children and adults is the rewarding side of art. Bringing colour and life into others sketches or doodles is the most rewarding of all. The experience of Bookfest and being able to light up the children's faces makes it all worthwhile! Contact me Here for more information on booking your party!

Liv Lorkin Designs Author/Illustrator/ Visual Story teller

After a very busy week of moulding, painting and sculpting her Tree Mail stump the very talented Liv Lorkin ( another of out Ten Penners team) was excited to lead her little freinds in a colourful and creative Postcard Workshop where they could drop their creation into the very special Mail Tree. The children loved every minute spent creating their postcards. More happy little vegimites!

Not forgetting onother of our talented team who had as much fun as her onlookers did. Tenille demonstrated badge making at her table where the children coloured in precut circles and created their own personalised badges. Needless to say this too was a huge hit!
