Hana Assafiri In Conversation: the audacity to be free (SOLD OUT)
About
Hana Assafiri is a much-loved and revered social activist and radical entrepreneur. Through the medium of food and dining in her renowned Moroccan Soup Bar, she has worked tirelessly for women’s empowerment.In her memoir HANA: The audacity to be free, she turns her gaze on herself to write a brutally honest account of her own personal story. Hana writes of her childhood between war-torn Lebanon and Australia, her attempts to leave a marriage she had no say in, and reinventing herself and her life at the tender age of twenty.
In 1998, on a whim, 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, the Soup Bar has changed thousands of women’s lives.
Join Hana in conversation with one of Australia's most respected and prolific food journalists, Dani Valent.
