The artBar, 37 Quebec St Upper Level, Guelph ON

Saturday September 7, 2024 2PM

Persephone’s Crickets chapbook launch
A backyard poetry reading at 3 Franchetto Blvd, Guelph ON

Details:

There will be a reading as well as time to hang out. We’ll have tents, so come even if the weather looks iffy. There will be limited seating, so BYO blanket or chair. You can park on the street.

To get into the backyard, you can descend five fairly steep stairs, or you can use the ramp. The ramp is not AODA compliant in terms of rise, but it holds at least 400 lb and is regularly used by a manual wheelchair user with the help of an able-bodied person. An indoor washroom is available, and there are 4 steps (with an unreliable railing) to get inside. 

There will be non-alcoholic drinks and snacks. There will also be books for sale.

Fertile Festival of New & Inventive Works, a daylong event celebrating poetry micropresses
The Printed Word Bookshop, 16 McMurray St, Dundas ON
