The Read Quebec Book Fair returns for its eighth installment on November 3-4 in the Concordia McConnell Building Atrium to present more than twenty overflowing tables of exciting new works from local publishers, authors, and translators, a full program of hybrid literary events, and multiple author signings.
We'll explore the basic building blocks to get you started on drawing and writing a (mostly silly!) comic strip featuring fun characters we'll create together. Close up faces, word balloons, sound effects and more!
In a first-ever episode with a live audience, award-winning podcaster Dr. Linda Morra will interview novelists Catherine Hernandez and Eva Crocker.
We'll be designing with words and pictures a double sided postcard with a message you'd like your future self to know.
In a pre-festival special event, Image+Nation Queer Culture, Montreal’s long-running queer film festival, will join the Violet Hour to co-sponsor this moving film, an adaptation of Catherine Hernandez’s novel of the same name.
Together we'll SLOWLY build a weird and wonderful bunch of monster heads that we can only create as a team! For all ages.
