Salon - Fairy Tales - Monash University, Caulfield 23 June 2012

The Fairy Tale Reading Group at Monash University will be hosting an enchanted afternoon of fairytale magic. Long before the brothers Grimm and Walt Disney, a circle of 17th century French authors gathered in Paris salons to read, perform and discuss fairytales. For one afternoon only, we will be recreating our very own Parisian salon to celebrate this French fairytale tradition.


Come along and learn about the authors who shaped fairytale history and first gave us the phrase, contes des fées (tales of the fairies). 




The afternoon is open to readings, performances and discussions about all things fairytale.


For all enquiries, contact arts-fairytale@monash.edu
