There will be time for questions for those who enjoy that interaction and space for those who prefer to listen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Everyone is invited, but the library prefers bookings, either through their Events page or by phoning 5422 1365.<br><\/p>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To celebrate International Women\u2019s Day, Kyneton Library is hosting a one-hour session of poems, stories and chat from 2pm on&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":23,"featured_media":27963,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[16],"tags":[7321,7320,7317,5619],"class_list":["post-27962","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-leisure","tag-angela-costi","tag-anne-gleeson","tag-international-womens-day-2","tag-kyneton-library"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27962","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/23"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=27962"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27962\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":27965,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/27962\/revisions\/27965"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/27963"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=27962"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=27962"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/centralvic.com\/midlandexpress.com.au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=27962"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
