Festival News

Festival News

Festival News is a newspaper produced each day for the week of the Sydney Writers' Festival by UTS journalism students. Students experience first-hand what it is like to write for and work on a daily newspaper. Students cover live events at the writers festival, come back to the UTS computer labs to write their story, file them and see their stories being read in a paper and online the next day.
