Friday at 7:00 pm - Stories Under a Living Sky Showcase
Saskatchewan is an evolving story. Kaleidoscope skies dance across limitless horizons, checkerboard prairies ripple with passing cirrus clouds, and a legion of wriggling waters run. Prairie poets pen the personal and the profound, the everyday and the once-in-a-lifetime, the subtleties and the nuanced and the truth as it’s discovered (or always known.) These stories are not only for us, they are about us.
With performances by Austin “The Noble Savage” Ahenakew, Geanna Dunbar, and Eric Gabriel aka Gabriel “ArchAngel” Ehijie. Hosted by Peace Akintade-Oluwagbeye.

Saturday at 1:00 – 2:00 pm - 2024 Caroline Heath Memorial Lecture: “Who is that Woman in the Mirror?” with Lorna Crozier
“Who is that Woman in the Mirror?” by Lorna Crozier
I used to be the youngest writer performing at literary festivals. Now I’m the oldest. What does that mean? How does growing old change one’s writing and public persona? Does the older writer still have anything to say, and if so, will it interest anyone else or feel out-of-date and out-of-touch? My talk will delve into these questions as I face the senior citizen I hardly recognize staring back at me from the mirror.
