Edmonton publishes a steady flow of poetry books every year! So many in fact, we’re having two celebrations! Join us for the first of two events to celebrate local poets who have had a book or chapbook published within the last year.

We’ll hear a sample from each poet and talk about that journey from getting a single poem down on the page to getting a whole book published. This event features sakâw laboucan, Jennifer Bowering Delisle, Erina Harris, and more poets we’re excited to share with you soon!


Audreys Books will have books for sale. Light snacks and drinks are available for purchase. All are welcome!


Free No RSVP required.
