Presenting the English Language Arts Network (ELAN)!
ELAN is a not-for-profit organization that connects, supports, and creates opportunities for Quebec’s English-speaking artists and arts communities. ELAN members are individuals and organizations from a wide array of artistic disciplines, cultural and geographic backgrounds, and linguistic and cultural communities. Together this network reflects an evolving Quebec identity and celebrates the province’s cultural, artistic, and social diversity.
Our invited guest is Nick Maturo, ELAN’s Director of Programming, who will be going over the various programs and services ELAN offers for professional writers. Learn more about the benefits of an ELAN membership, from funding consultation to monthly schmoozers to microgrants, in this 60-minute online session.
Everyone is invited, and we particularly encourage professional writers who are not part of or are unfamiliar with ELAN to attend this session.
This session will be recorded and made available on QWF’s YouTube channel.
