Stepping into Your Own Story with the Storyfest Beach Library

Storyfest’s Beach Library activation for SWELL 2025 will be themed around Stepping into Your Own Story. This immersive, interactive activation will celebrate storytelling, identity, and community connection, all while making books accessible and fun.

This free Beach Library is more than just a place to grab a book — it's an invitation for every person to imagine themselves as the hero of their own narrative. Storyfest's Beach Library will become a space that celebrates reading and storytelling for all ages.

The activation will include:

  • Story Sparks author, Mark Cunich, hosting a book reading on Wednesday 17 September
  • Free books to take home
  • Interactive art activities
  • Photo opportunity to see yourself as a hero in your own book

Plus! Catch Mark Cunich’s interactive storytelling performance on Saturday 13 September at the Yulagi Tent.
