Winter Readings is an annual event in Wellington organised by HeadworX Publishers, Earl of Seacliff Art Workshop and Kwanzaa - the Afrikan Shop in conjunction with Wellington City Council and the City Gallery. The aim is to promote New Zealand poetry to the wider public through a series of lively readings taking place in the winter months in Wellington. Each year an anthology of the readers is produced and is edited/compiled by Mark Pirie and published by the Earl of Seacliff Art Workshop.
This year's readings are a tribute to Manchester rock band Oasis.
Winter Readings 2007 featured: Alistair Te Ariki Campbell, Michael O'Leary, Glenn Colquhoun, Niel Wright, Nelson Wattie, Dinah Hawken, L E Scott, Wanjiku Kiarie, Martyn Sanderson, Mark Pirie, Tim Jones, Richard Langston and Jenny Powell-Chalmers.
