Community Event - Windsor/Leamington - Contemporary Artists of Colour: Responsive Writing
Event Website/Tickets
A special workshop in collaboration with Talysha Bujold-Abu, Gallery Manager & Membership Coordinator of the Arts Council, Windsor Region, this ekphrastic (responsive writing) writing workshop is a celebration of contemporary artists of colour. Our two-hour workshop will present an artist’s work without context followed by a written response to the art guided by a writing prompt (any style of writing is welcome in response to the art – poetry, scene, dialogue, free-write, etc.), and then a discussion about the artist, the history of his/her/they work, and sharing of the written work. We will offer information about the artists so writers can further interact and respond to the art beyond the workshop.
The intention of this workshop is to engage with visual art through writing and discussion. Bujold-Abu’s expertise with contemporary artists of colour will enable writers to discover new artists, to learn about these artist’s rich creative lives, to write in response to this art, and finally to celebrate the intersection of visual art and writing with contemporary artists of colour.

Événement communautaire - Montmagny - Souper-Conférence AFEAS
Invitation Journée internationale des Femmes
L’AFEAS de Montmagny vous invite à une autre belle activité cette année afin de souligner la Journée Internationale des Femmes. Comme à chaque année, nous tentons d’offrir une rencontre enrichissante et inspirante à nos invités. Lors de ce souper annuel, nous recevrons non pas une conférencière mais un conférencier dont le sujet proposé saura certainement nous captiver.
Monsieur Alain Labonté, écrivain, auteur, philanthrope s’est imposé dans la littérature québécoise par entre autre son livre au titre évocateur : Moi aussi j’aime les femmes. Puis un deuxième volume rempli d’espoir : Ma tête, mon amie, mon ennemie, sur le thème de la santé mentale. Également parolier pour certains artistes bien connus dont Marc Hervieux. Bruno Pelletier, Annie Villeneuve dont la chanson Mon Héro est la chanson thème de la campagne de Leucan.
Le thème choisi : Toutes les femmes qui m’ont mis au monde nous captivera certainement. Ce souper-conférence se tiendra le 13 MARS prochain à compter de 18 h à l’Hôtel l’Oiselière situé au 105 Chemin des Poirier à Montmagny, le coût du souper-conférence est de 40$. Invitez vos collègues de travail, les membres de votre organisation, tous et toutes sont chaleureusement invités à partager cette histoire d’un homme qui fait partie de la nôtre.
Les cartes sont disponibles auprès des membres de l’AFEAS Montmagny et dans les commerces suivants :
Cuisinerie & Cie , 117 rue St-Jean-Baptiste E. Montmagny;
