The Sarsfield Community Association on behalf of the Sarsfield Snaps team are really excited to share a special invitation with you, from the Sarsfield Snaps photographers.

Sarsfield Snaps is a bushfire recovery project located in Sarsfield, East Gippsland. The project highlights the voices of children and young people in bushfire recovery through photography. For more information, visit Sarsfield Snaps website. The photographers are launching their very own book! The launch will coincide with a celebration of the final stages of the Snaps project. The event is being designed, and will be delivered, by the photographers (including speeches etc). An invitation to the book launch and celebration is attached.

Come and join as Sarsfield celebrates the achievement of the Snaps Photographers with their book launch!

Reminders for the attendees

We ask that those media representatives either attending the event, or speaking with photographers prior to the event, comply with the following:

• Please do not record interviews with photographers without first checking with parents/carers (all photographers are under 18 years)
• If interviewing a photographer at any stage, please do not ask about their; and

1. Own experience of the fires
2. Family home or family's experience of the fires
3. Own recovery journey

• Please focus on the photographers experience in the project and the images they have taken

We hope you can make it. Please book/RSVP at Eventbrite- Sarsfield Snaps Book launch and celebration page or the QR code in the attached invite - thank you!

The 'Sarsfield Snaps' team (a small group of volunteer community members) have asked me to forward the attached flyer to you all. I may be biassed (my wife is part of the project) but I believe this grass roots community project has literally changed the lives of bush fire impacted kids in Sarsfield and surrounds. For more information, visit Sarsfield Snaps website.

'Sarsfield Snaps' invitation

The team will be putting on a book launch and community celebration on 7 October 2022. We are very keen that the kids are made to feel special (like local celebrities), so some media celebrating the book, the event and the project would be amazing.
