LIANZA 2020 Events - It’s A Wrap!

1/12/2020

0 Comments

 
The 2020 COVID lockdowns saw a huge increase in demand for virtual events. LIANZA offered over 20 online events and engaged with over 1200 professionals between the end of March and May 2020. The desire to connect and share ideas virtually increased dramatically and the demand for an association to bring the community together was more important than ever.

Books Alive & Virtual Storytimes

Wow! Almost 5,000 people have watched Books Alive and Virtual Storytime events on the LIANZA YouTube Channel since July this year! Get in quick – this summer is the best time to make the most of our author-led Virtual Storytimes (as well as virtual storytimes from libraries all around the country) as they’ll be taken down in February as per our groundbreaking copyright agreement. 
Watch the Virtual Storytime playlist >
Some of our favourite Books Alive events include: 
Michael Petherick starring in a dramatised #Tumeke; Toby Morris and Janet Hunt doing a skills swap; Gavin Bishop and Kimberly Andrews talking illustration; Ruth Paul giving a drawing lesson and Selina Tusitala Marsh talking about her prize-winning book Mophead!

​As one of our participating authors said, ​​
“Thank you to LIANZA for coming up with this initiative under high stress conditions – it ran smoothly and was fun to do!”

LIANZA would not be able to present all the free events it delivers without the generous support of volunteers. We would like to thank our 2020 presenters and facilitators: Pamela Jones, Katherine Bosworth, Rob Cruickshank, Alice Cruickshank, Rhonda Grantham, Victoria Passau, Reid Perkins, Courtney Johnson, Dan Daly, Honiana Love, Anne Goulding, Maggie Hartnett and her research team, Christine Mackenzie, Marie-Louise Ayres, Elizabeth Fong, Jane Cowell, Mirla Edmundson, Chris Cormack, Chris Szekely, Sue Roberts, Bill Macnaught, Trevor Himona, Philip Miles, Lara Sanderson, Mike Dickison, Laura Caygill.
