Author Presentations at Lethbridge Public Library’s Word on the Street Festival

We are proud to partner with Lethbridge Public Library and the Southern Alberta Group for the Environment (SAGE) in joining communities across the country in a national celebration of literacy, storytelling, and the literary arts.

The Word on the Street Festival is a signature event in southern Alberta that presents established and emerging authors, storytellers, workshops, and other online activities.

Since 2017 we have sponsored an author reading and presentation to ensure important environmental topics are part of the event:

• Trevor Harriot - Towards a Prairie Atonement (2017)

• David Martin - Tar Swan (2018)

• Jenna Butler - Magnetic North (2019)

• Maude Barlow - Still Hopeful (2022)

• John Vaillant - Fire Weather: The Making of a Beast (2023)

• Lorne Fitch - Travels Up the Creek: A Biologist’s Search for a Paddle
