Adventurous Women

One of the most popular storytelling sessions at WORD Christchurch returns with a bang. Prepare to be inspired and moved as five extraordinary but very different women tell powerful stories of bravery and risk from their own adventurous lives.

Hear environmentalist, bookseller and author Ruth Shaw on being held up by pirates, hitting rock bottom, and eventually setting up three tiny bookshops; writer, multimedia artist, Fulbright scholar and musician Coco Solid on subverting the old paradigms of business models and walking a more holistic path in her work; mountaineer and author Jo Morgan on riding her motorcycle through more than 100 countries; and dynamic entrepreneurial duo Rosa and Margo Flanagan on their success as cookbook authors The Two Raw Sisters. You won’t want to miss this. Hosted by Miriama Kamo.

This session will be held live for in-person audiences and offered as a livestream for at-home viewing. Ticket prices for both are the same, please make sure you select the correct option for you.

If you need to swap your in-person ticket for an at-home digital ticket please contact us [at least 24 hours in advance] via email at ticketing@wordchristchurch.co.nz.
