Writers Festival holds launch party

EDEN MILLS – For a preview of the fiction writers appearing at the 23rd annual Writers’ Festival here, everyone is invited to the intimate setting at the eBar on Aug. 23 for readings, music, prizes, and more.

The event features Scott Chantler, Evan Munday, and Nicole Lundrigan reading from their most recent works. It is an opportunity to enjoy a preview of the plans for this year’s festival.

The eBar is at 41 Quebec Street, in Guelph. Doors open at 6:30pm with readings and music from 7 to 9pm. There is free admission and a cash bar.

This year’s Writers Festival has some of the biggest names in Canadian fiction lined up.

The festival runs from Sept. 15 to 18, and Festival Sunday this year includes readings by  local authors Claire Tacon, Chantler and Dan Vyleta, as well as Alison Pick, Andrew Pyper, Terry Fallis, and William Deverell, to name a few.

Eden Mills Writers’ Festival attracts book lovers of all ages, as well as those who enjoy a relaxing outdoor family event.  

Canadian authors of fiction, non fiction, poetry, and prose gather every year in the hamlet  and read from their latest work. 

Readings for adults, young adults, and children take place every 20 minutes, from four leafy gardens and meadows, behind the homes of Eden Mills residents.

Bring a blanket or a lawn chair – and lounge by the Eramosa River while listening to the words of some of Canada’s best writers.
