Hosted by MEANWHILE on the 25th August, this event was a launch for the debut collection of poetry by Eliana Gray: Eager to Break, (Girls On Key Press, 2019)

"A poetry reading for anyone who's ever thought they'd never go to a poetry reading. And love it.

For one night only, we will fill a room with some of the best and brightest emerging talent in Pōneke.

There will be laughter, there will be drinks, there will be music, there will be feelings. Like a house party, but with less regret.

Featuring, for your entertainment, readings from: Eliana Gray, Jordana Bragg, Freya Daly Sadgrove, Chris Tse and music from Mystery Waitress. There will be work from the artists available for purchase.

With special thanks to the Wellington City Council, Rainbow Wellington and Mean Doses."
