Victoria Festival of Authors Free Online Events today

Even if you're not in this island city you can still see these online panels (sliding scale, including free tickets). Schedule is in Pacific time.

Stories as a Form of Medicine  (1 pm Pacific)
Curated and moderated by Monique Gray Smith, Chief Dr. Robert Joseph and Leona Prince share how stories, including the ones they write, have been medicine in their lives.

Tickets



Climate Acts, Land Sings (3:30pm Pacific)
Moderated by Rita Wong, a poet dedicated to questions of water justice, decolonization, ecology and climate justice, this panel of writers and activists discusses the question: “How can writing be an act of reciprocity and imagining the futures we need?” With Tawahum Bige, Alessandra Naccarato and Julie Sze.
