What is StoryBoard?

StoryBoard is a travelling creative writing workshop fostering the next generation of readers and writers in the Northern Rivers. This free program brings exceptional authors and illustrators directly to regional schools, igniting young minds to create their own stories.

In 2018 we reached over 8,600 students, visiting schools as far as Tenterfield in the west, Kempsey in the south and Murwullimbah in the north.

‘My son has struggled with reading and writing for 2 years. He has been diagnosed with everything from dyslexia to audio processing delays… After the Byron Writers Festival “StoryBoard” visit to his school, I have to say, something has changed in him. He came home bursting with ideas and confidence and has since created six books.  It gave me SUCH joy because this is a kid who was too anxious to even attempt to read until recently, let alone write. Thank you, you are doing truly beautiful and important work!’ – Sarah, Bangalow NSW
