Bard to hold forth in Morden, 7 October 2008…
20 August 2008—Morden, Manitoba
Following the scheduled book-launch in Winnipeg on 6 October, the indefatigable poet will be regaling an audience the very next night in the town of Morden (a 90 minute drive SW of the city). The venue (arranged by local impresario Grace Warkentin, a well-known long-time Mordenite and also Sam W.’s able ‘agent’) is the Pembina Hills Arts Centre (in the town’s splendid old historic clock tower-turned-gallery). Come for 7:00 pm, take in the bard’s readings and some libations, get your book copy signed by the author, and enjoy an impressive juried collection of visual art to boot… did you know that Morden was honoured this year as a Cultural Capital of Canada?
