This event will mark the first release of featured authors for the upcoming fall festival, which will take place from November 1st to 3rd at Place des Arts.
The event will be held at the Greater Sudbury Public Library Main Branch on Thursday, June 27th, at 2:00 PM. Key speakers include Wordstock Sudbury Literary Festival Director Heather Campbell and Sudbury’s newly inaugurated Poet Laureate Alex Tétreault.
Additionally, the festival will launch the 2024 YouthWords writing contest theme during the event. Now sponsored by the Sudbury Credit Union, the annual writing contest is open to grades 9-12 students, with two categories, short story and poetry. Participants will have the chance to win cash prizes.
This is a free event. We invite all community members to attend the event and share in the celebration of literature in our community and anticipation for the 11th edition of the Wordstock Sudbury Literary Festival this November.
