Poetry Bash, Writers Fest, October 23, 2025

The Poetry Bash is an iconic event for poetry connoisseurs and newcomers to the genre alike. This atmospheric evening of readings and conviviality will be hosted by interdisciplinary and spoken word artist, and Vancouver Poetry House Artistic Director, Johnny Trinh. 

Beguiling and unforgettable poems from Canisia Lubrin (The World After Rain), Dennis Lee (Wrestling with Cadence), Marc Perez (Dayo), Karen Solie (Wellwater), Isabella Wang (November, November), katherena vermette (Procession), and Paul Vermeersch (NMLCT) will surely take your breath away.
