Book Launch: Hana

Join us to celebrate the launch of Hana Assafiri's memoir HANA: The audacity to be free.

Hana's memoir follows her childhood between Lebanon and Australia, her forced arranged marriage, her numerous attempts to escape, and her ensuing career in women's services. In 1998, she opened the Moroccan Soup Bar, which would quickly become an iconic Melbourne institution-founded on the radical notion that marginalised women, together in the kitchen, can effect social change.

Free, but bookings are essential.

Please book here.
