Uncle Jack Charles in conversation – BOOKED OUT

PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS EVENT IS BOOKED OUT.

Jack Charles has worn many hats throughout his life: actor, cat burglar, musician, heroin addict, activist, even Senior Victorian Australian of the Year. But the title he’s most proud to claim is that of Aboriginal Elder. Come along to hear him discuss his heartbreaking and hilarious new book, Jack Charles: Born-again Blakfella, in a candid and uplifting memoir from one of Australia’s most beloved actors.

Free, but please book here.
