The Stella Prize Spelling Bee
Could you spell ‘manoeuvred’ under pressure? How about ‘laodicean’ or ‘Kosciuszko’? Unleash your competitive streak and test your vocabulary against a group of smart literary women – Alice Garner, Louise Swinn and Estelle Tang – and celebrate the second year of the Stella Prize with a spelling bee hosted by Monica Dux at Queen Victoria Women’s Centre.
