Celebrating Community: 30 Years of Word Vancouver Opening Gala

The official opening event for this year’s Word Vancouver festival will be an evening of readings, music, laughter, and mingling! The evening will begin with an intimate reading and Q&A from 6:00 to 6:30 pm with UBC Library’s Inaugural Writer-in-Residence, Tsering Yangzom Lama, We Measure the Earth with Our Bodies (Penguin Random House). This pre-show reading is ticketed separately. The admission cost includes: entry into the Museum of Vancouver before and after the event, one drink, and a book. Light refreshments will be served.
