Tina Kane

The Tina Kane Emergent Writer Award honours Tina Kane, who had been for twenty years – as a 2014 citation of her noted – ‘a presence to rely on, engaging with writers, locals and visitors, making them feel welcome in the space she creates around herself, which is one of curiosity, intimacy and genuine good will.’ Tina was particularly welcoming to young and newly emergent writers, who often expressed their gratitude for her personal warmth and attention. Hers is a tradition the Mildura Writers Festival intends to mark and continue with this annual award.
