The Montreal Zen Poetry Festival, March 16th to 18th, 2007

Author: Christina - Published 2007-03-12 12:42 - (1224 Reads)

The Festival

“Words have no meaning” is the theme of the very first ever Montreal Zen Poetry Festival, an ambitious and enigmatic affair that will take off the weekend of March 16th to 18th, 2007.

Poets, translators, story-tellers, scholars, musicians, and Zen monks will come together to explore how Zen embraces a paradoxical relationship with language – a relationship which has strongly influenced both Asian and North American poetry movements.

The Montreal Zen Poetry Festival invites everyone, of all ages, to take part in the meaningful and entertaining line-up of events with our lively and thought-provoking performers and speakers.

Invitation to ELAN’s cinq-a-sept, Valentine’s, Tuesday, 13 February, 2007

Author: Christina - Published 2007-02-11 19:46 - (1218 Reads)
Vicki Marcok is the publishing rep on the ELAN (English Language Arts Network) board. She wants to invite everyone to ELAN’s cinq-a-sept for Valentine’s Day – a way for our artistic community to get better acquainted.

It will be held Tuesday, February 13, from 5 to 7 at the Empress Theatre (the old Cinema V at 5560 Sherbrooke West in NDG). Please RSVP ELAN at admin at quebec-elan.org, with Valentine’s Get Together in the subject line, so they will know how many to cater for.

Built in 1927, this beautiful Art Deco landmark is the only Egyptian-themed theatre in Canada, and was once the social hub of the community it graced. For over 12 years, this fine old building has stood empty and forlorn, but a group of committed citizens is working to rebuild and recreate this heritage landmark into a fine and performing arts centre, named the Empress Cultural Centre http://www.empressndg.org

As ELAN members, you are invited to come mix, mingle & schmooze with fellow members and the ELAN Board, and while you’re at it find out what’s happening with the Empress project (mini tours will be given upon request).

Beer, juice & snacks will be served. Feel free to bring anyone who may find ELAN or the Empress of interest, but do RSVP to admin at quebec-elan.org by end of day Sunday with “RSVP” in the subject line to help us prepare.

Looking forward to seeing you there, ELAN Board & Staff
