We’re joined on Culture 101 by three poets and artists from Pōneke and Kāpiti Coast who are part of a collective known as the Meow Gurrls. 

They’ve just launched their latest publication Famdamily

The group is named in part after Meow café and bar in Wellington, also an important music venue in the city.  

The group gather  there to write, read and discuss poetry, sharing words, wine, food and fine company.

Mark Amery is joined by Mary-Jane Duffy, Mary Macpherson and Sudha Rao.
