Our Next Reading: May 26, 3-5 PM, VPL Central Branch

Our reading for May features writers from across the Lower Mainland! It will take place at the Vancouver Public Library's Central Branch on May 26, 2019, from 3-5 PM. The reading will be hosted in the Montalbano Family Theatre, a brand new theatre space on the library's 8th floor (learn more about our venue here).

It will feature:

Lucie Brock-Broido (1956-2018) read by Diane Tucker 

David McFadden (1940 to 2018) read by Laura Farina 

WS Merwin (1927–2019) read by Fiona Lam 

Maya Angelou (1928 – 2014) read by LJ Weisberg

Attendance is free. We start more-or-less on time, so come early to make sure you don't miss out.
