Lots of exciting things happening with Battle River Writers!
At the November 15 event, we will
• Update our efforts for the Places that Matter publication – begun in response to the invitation from Alberta Culture to write responses to the Alberta Heritage Art Series.
To date there are 16 pieces of visual art work and 15 pieces of written responses in the form of poems, short stories, reflective essays and music.
Some will remember the Art/Writing exhibitions we partnered on two winters ago with Augustana, Sacred Arts and Alberta Historic Resources Branch. Our efforts were also presented at the National Trust conference in Ottawa, 2017. Since heritage places and artistic interpretations do not outdate/age, our work is current, meaningful and getting ready for publication.
• Discuss the Grouse Compendium, which is an emerging body of work based on 2019 Year of the Grouse and Project BRING BACK THE GROUSE.
New people are welcome to join Writing Room at
Story’s Way, 176 William Street, Braim.
For information, call 780/672-9315.
