Sydney Writers' Festival 30 April — 6 May 2018


     
Ahead of moving the 2018 Sydney Writers’ Festival hub from Walsh Bay to its new temporary home at Carriageworks in Eveleigh, we have been catching up with writers, broadcasters and thinkers from the area in our Local Knowledge series. 
The suburbs Eveleigh, Chippendale, Darlington and Redfern can all be explored within a short walking distance of one another, so we spoke to Triple J presenter and comedian Lewis Hobba who shared some of his personal highlights spanning life in Redfern and its surrounds.
"When I moved to Sydney in 2009, my first job was in Chippendale, and the first place that blew my country Victorian mind was the nearby White Rabbit Gallery. It's a huge (free!) collection of modern Chinese art that surprises and impresses everyone who drops in. It’s also on the same street as Brickfields cafe, whose bacon sandwich can pull you back from the brink of death."
