Doors open 5.30pm. Readings start from 6pm.
Red Anthology Blurb:
Technology reigns: the horrors of the modern world are streamed to our phones and AI mass produces shallow imitations of human creativity. Our humanity becomes dissolved into algorithms, leaving creative producers seeing something: Red.
In response, twelve South Australian writers were challenged to confront these changes by writing candidly and curiously from lived human experiences. The result is the third book in the Blue Feet Anthology Series: Red, a collection of mould-breaking stories and poems that celebrate our flawed and complex natures in a way that machines cannot replicate.
Proceeds raised through the sale of the Red go to Parkestone Foundation to support South Australian LGBTQIA+ projects.

About the presenter: Buon-Cattivi Press
Buon-Cattivi Press is a micro-publishing label based on Kaurna Country (Adelaide, South Australia). Since its inception in 2018, Buon-Cattivi Press has focussed its attention on publishing emerging and experimental voices. Its boutique approach allows for a more collaborative process with each new writer and text to produce a final product that realises the author’s intent behind their stories.
The label releases just one to two books a year, each published with a unique art piece as its cover. The majority of covers are the work of local artist Andrew Crooks, who styles the cover pieces to match the desires and qualities of both the author and the manuscript.
Buon-Cattivi Press has had the privilege of publishing debut novels, emerging creative researchers, and never-before-read essentials of Australian queer history. Our 2020 verse novella Dona Juanita and the Love of Boys by Gabrielle Everall was listed in the Australian Book Review’s Books of the Year.

Image Description: Pop art images in bold red on a grey background. The images include a needle and thread, tomato soup tin, chilli, capsicum and a ballet slipper. 
Feast Festival acknowledges that we gather, create and celebrate on the traditional lands of the Kaurna people.
We pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging, and recognise First Nations peoples as the original storytellers, artists and custodians of this land.
We honour and respect queer First Nations communities, including Sistagirls and Brothaboys, and recognise the enduring connection between culture, identity, community and Country.
Sovereignty was never ceded. Always was, always will be Aboriginal Land.
