Balai Soedjatmoko in Solo created a call for Mothers to express themselves in the form of writing. This could be short stories, poems, essays, memoirs or journals. These works were then put together as a book that will be launched on the 18th December 2018 to also commemorate the Indonesian Mother’s Day that is celebrated on 22 December 2018. This book is created also to encourage an appreciation of Mothers and all their roles. Join the book launch on Tuesday, 18 December 2018 at 7:30 PM at Balai Soedjatmoko Solo.
