SUMMARY:Becky Blake and Nancy Jo Cullen in Conversation
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of reading and conversation as Becky Blake and Nancy Jo Cullen chat about their latest releases: Proof I Was Here\, and The Western Alienation Merit Badge! \n///////////////////////////////// \nLibrairie Drawn & Quarterly recognizes that our events and bookstores are located on the unceded territory of the Kanien’kehá:ka. Many of us refer to Montreal as our home\, but it is named Tiohtiá:ke. This has always been a gathering place for many First Nations and continues to be home to a diverse population of Indigenous peoples. It is important to think about how each and every one of us has arrived here. We are grateful that creating and sharing stories has been a part of this land for thousands of years and we urge you to seek out a story that is different from your own. \n///////////////////////////////// \nLa Petite Drawn and Quarterly Accessibility information:\n– Our event space uses StopGap.ca ramps in an effort to encourage accessibility. Both the step at the entrance\, followed by a half step and a door have StopGap ramps. The door opens inward and is not automated. Once inside\, there are no additional steps.\n– It is not a sober space\, our events sometimes offer alcohol. \n♥️ Please email events@drawnandquarterly.com if you have any accessibility needs we can accommodate (for example\, saving you a seat if you have mobility needs) for you to be able to enjoy our events\, worry-free\, and feel free to contact us for any concerns you may have ♥️
