SUMMARY:Mile End Poets' Festival 2019
DESCRIPTION:Mile End Poets’ Festival will return in 2019! Watch this space for updates. \nMore information on MEPF can be found here.  \n* \nThe Mile End Poets’ Festival is a multidisciplinary arts festival focusing on literature in performance. Its goal was to present in a single local festival a range of the exciting artistic activity regularly taking place in and around Montreal’s Mile End district. The district is home to a huge number of poets\, musicians\, writers\, dancers and performers. \nThe festival was founded in 2010 by Montreal poet\, performer and curator Ian Ferrier\, with help from writer/performers Moe Clark and Kaie Kellough. In its first year it was entirely artist-funded. It presented four nights of programming\, each curated by a different artist or poet from the Mile End. This has been the model ever since. The festival now regularly receives much needed support from both the Canada Council for the Arts and the Quebec Writers’ Federation. It presents work from multiple artistic communities with links to work by First Nations\, literary and performance poetry artists\, contemporary dancers\, top artists from the city and elsewhere in Canada\, and musicians who both tour internationally and regularly work in the neighbourhood’s exciting performance venues. \nIn 2017\, Ian Ferrier was joined by Northern Irish poet & performer Rachel McCrum as Administrative Director for the Festival.

SUMMARY:P O E T R Y N I T E
DESCRIPTION:Our first show back was … WOW! Seriously\, this community – our talent – our love – our capacity to show up fully for ourselves and each other?!?! There is nothing like us\, together. Come be part of it. \n► DOORS @ 7 – READINGS @ 8 \n► READERS: we reserve up to eight spots before the show and after that it goes to open mic which is mostly first-come\, first-served with priority to BIPOC folks. All artists/musicians welcome!! \n► Show is $5 (tinyurl.com/y9w8j4pm) \n► We want to foster a supportive\, positive environment for everyone. That means no racism / sexism / ableism / homophobia / transphobia and a request that poets please give trigger warnings before your poems. If you have a concern please speak to the poet directly or to one of the hosts! \n——- \n► PORTES @ 7 – LECTURES @ 8 \n► LECTEURS: Nous acceptons jusqu’à huit inscriptions à l’avance\, celles-ci vous garantissent un moment sur la scène. S’ensuit ensuite un micro ouvert sous la formule premier.ère arrivé.e\, premier.ère servi.e avec une priorité pour les gens du BIPOC. Tous les artistes / musiciens sont les bienvenus !! \n► Le spectacle coûte 5 $ (tinyurl.com/y9w8j4pm) \n► Dans l’optique d’assurer un climat accueillant pour toustes\, nous ne tolérerons auncun comportement et propos raciste\, sexiste\, homophobe\, transphobe\, ou s’inscrivant dans toute autre logique d’oppression systémique. Nous demandons aussi aux lecteur.trices de donner des avertissements de contenus (trigger warnings) avant leurs poèmes. Si un problème se fait sentir de ce côté\, prière d’en faire part à l’artiste ou aux organisateur.trices.
