The original custodians of the Yarra Valley, the Wurundjeri people, didn’t write. Their wisdom travelled through time in songs, stories and dance. We acknowledge this land’s indigenous ancestors and elders, oral historians of the dream-time. This poetry gathering sits on the shoulders of countless generations of wisdom keepers and spoken-word story tellers.
Welcome to our Yarra Valley Spoken Word Community.
We meet at The Dreaming Space Academy at Yarra Valley ECOSS, Wesburn on the second Friday of the month and welcome you to join us and share your musings.
Ours is a space to share the power of the spoken word, be inspired by our community of artists and learn to write and share life’s depths through this life changing art form.
Families are welcome until after supper, we have a feature artist each month and then Open Mic.
Entry $10 Concession, $15 Full, Children Free.
Please bring a vegetarian plate to share; Entry includes Supper of Dahl, Rice, Hummus & Corn Chips.

Join us Friday night 11th August, as we celebrate our first anniversary with a birthday party, featuring our very own local National Treasure Michael Veitch, as our Special Guest Story Teller!
No charge for supper this month, please bring a vegetarian party plate to share (if you can), there’ll be Dahl, rice, hummus, corn chips and birthday cake to kick off the celebration before we’re treated to the delicious timbre of Michael Veitch’s voice entrancing us with an anecdote of a transformative ‘chance’ encounter he once had…
Come ready to share poems or prose of your own such encounters, or just bathe in the aural pleasure of listening to others share their internal insights in the cosy, welcoming Dreaming Space Dome.
Tickets at the door:
$10 Concession
Bring a friend, bring a veggie party plate, hope to see you there!
