Event Description

To kick off the 10th anniversary of the Victoria Festival of Authors, the VFA’s board is offering an afternoon writing workshop at the Art Gallery of Greater Victoria. Poets and writers will be invited to creatively respond to the Architectures of Protection exhibition (running from May 24-October 26, 2025) through language, image, metaphor, description, and conversation that engages with the exhibition and its ideas of protection and refuge, as they relate to community, culture, identity, and land.
