For many pandemic has brought isolation and loneliness, as the virus makes it difficult to meet with friends and family or attend public event. And yet, Covid has also allowed us to find new solidarities with each other, and reflect on the importance of our relations with the ones who are usually close to us.

Join us for a night of storytelling, where four of our neighbours will share their experiences of feeling closer during this new normal.

Guests:

  • Vanessa Richards has a foundation in music, screen and live performance, community arts and writing
  • Charles Montgomery is an award-winning author and urban experimentalist.
  • Emilee Gilpin is a nomad Michif, and a storyteller.
  • Michelle Cyca is a writer, editor and book enthusiast living on unceded territories of the Musqueam Band, and the Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh Nations.
