Meet the Organiser

Johanna M Rae

Johanna loves meeting readers, old and new, as well as other authors.

She began Ages of Pages to help bring together all the people who share a love for books. Her vision was to create a family friendly atmosphere, encompassing as many genres as possible. She also wanted to support reading across NZ, so every Ages of Pages event raises money (from the official table) for Duffy Books in Homes.

The first Ages of Pages in 2021 was a grand success, and Johanna is thrilled to be able to make it an annual affair.

Thanks to our sponsors!
