As Leonard Cohen reminds us, the line between the song and the word, is a thin one and most beautiful. Join three celebrated and award-winning poets, George Elliott Clarke, Heidi Sander and David Stones in this unique celebration of their poetry, both spoken and transformed into song through a unique cast of illustrious musical performers.
An inspirational and thought-provoking performance by award-winning poet Heidi Sander as she fuses music and poetry to launch her poetry collection, The Forest Of My Mind. Joined by renowned pianist David Eliakis who has arranged music to each of her poems, they will be performing these pieces followed by a Q&A and author signing. This storytelling event with live music is one of the highlights of our fall lineup! This event has limited seating so pick up your tickets early!
Please join us for a conversation between Sherrill Grace and Kel Pero to remember Timothy Findley and his importance to Canadian literature, Grace’s fieldwork and archival research that shaped her writing, and a discussion of the issues that were important to Findley that remain relevant to this day. Presented by Wilfrid Laurier University Press and the Stratford Writers’ Festival.
