Which three books resonate most with you right now? Do you have a secret survival habit? And, if tomorrow is good for you, where would you choose to go on a fantasy art date?
This summer Jo Smythe (author, In The Time of Foxes) delves into these crucial questions with six brilliant, funny and courageous change-makers in a series of live recordings of the Tomorrow Could Be Good podcast.
Join us in the beautiful courtyard of Glebe's iconic Sappho Books for wine and dinner before settling in for a compelling yarn about life, books and inspiration in dark times.
Doors open 6pm for drinks and nibbles, recording 7-8pm
