HISTORY
Boroondara Writers started as a family history writing group in 1996. The first six years were facilitated by the various Writers-in-Residence at Hawthorn Council. Several of our members still write memoir and personal essays, but we encompass all styles of writing today.
​
In 2002, we became self-managed and Boroondara Council supports us with free access to Library meeting rooms for our events. We incorporated in 2014.
