Meet in the Middle (Lacombe)

Please join us for a special event roughly midway between Calgary and Edmonton! We really want to see more connections between Alberta writers outside of the two city centers and what better way to do it than to meet in the middle?! There will be complimentary snacks, an open mic, and an opportunity to socialize with fellow writers from around the province! Hosted by Wendy McGrath.

This event is FREE to attend.

About the Host:

Wendy McGrath is a Métis poet, writer, and artist living in amiskwacîwâskahikan (Edmonton) on Treaty 6 Territory. She is the winner of the inaugural Prairie Grindstone Prize. THE BEAUTY OF VULTURES (NeWest Press) is a poetry collection inspired by and including the bird/wildlife photography of musician Danny Miles. Her writing embraces multiple genres—fiction, poetry, spoken word, and creative non-fiction. Her Santa Rosa Trilogy — the novels Santa Rosa, North East, and Broke City — continues her exploration of the working-class prairie gothic genre. She is a member of the board for NeWest Press.
