The Friends of the Wollongong City Libraries are looking forward to our next literary luncheon with a very special guest author, Om Dhungel.

With his co-author James Button, Om has written his life story in Bhutan to Blacktown: Losing everything and finding Australia.

Om will talk to us about his incredible and inspiring journey, from being forced to leave his homeland of Bhutan, to being a human rights activist in Nepal and to eventually becoming a community leader in Australia.

Come along and join us for this event on 24 August to hear more of Om’s amazing story, and enjoy a delicious lunch among friends.

Everyone is welcome at our events, whether or not they are a Library member. Tickets are available at Corrimal, Thirroul, and Dapto libraries, as well as at the cashier’s desk in the Wollongong City Council administration building. All of the money raised goes to helping special Library projects.

For more info, call 0403 970 461 or cpo23@hotmail.com.
