Celebrate the power of words shaped by the mountains at Banff Centre. Writers from the three-week Mountain Writers Intensive will share new work exploring adventure, wilderness, and the human connection to landscape.
Guided by mentorship and time to hone their craft in Banff’s inspiring setting, participants present their voices in poetry, fiction, nonfiction, and journalism. Hosted by award-winning faculty Helen Mort (A Line Above the Sky, The Illustrated Woman) and Kate Harris (Lands of Lost Borders), the evening highlights the spirit of mountain literature.
Enjoy a drink from the bar, hear fresh work, and connect with artists and faculty. Doors open at 6:15 p.m., readings begin at 7:00 p.m., and mingling will continue until 9:30 p.m.
