ASLA Tasmania Mini Conference 2024



Keeping Inspired!

A rare opportunity to hear Kevin Hennah speak at the site of his latest redevelopment, Launceston College.  Kevin provides inspiration on both design and self-managed makeovers.  He has presented around the world, has a wealth of ideas to share and is passionate about keeping libraries relevant!

Dr Mark Macleod, author, publisher and former national CBCA president, has been awarded for distinguished service to Children's Literature and has taught at universities around the world.  Hear about using reading to strengthen young people, enabling choice and anecdotes from his life as a writer and publisher.
