Upcoming/Recent Live Readings
Salon of the Refused
​
Sunday, October 27th, 2024 1:30pm
Museum of Ontario Archaeology Theatre
1600 Attawandaron Road
London, Ontario
​
​This event takes its inspiration from the 1863 Salon des Refusés. It is a celebration of writing that was initially rejected. It is also a celebration of marginalized communities who often feel rejected by mainstream society. The authors will present works of poetry or prose that went unrecognized when first submitted to either a literary journal or competition but whose power and beauty will be evident to those in attendance. For details and author lineup:​
