Join us in the attic for our 2023 Portfolio Series—our next event features Two Spirit author Tawahum Bige, who will be reading poetry from their debut collection, Cut to Fortress. 

Tawahum Bige is a Łutselkʼe Dene, Plains Cree poet and spoken word artist from unceded Musqueam, Squamish & Tsleil-waututh Territory (Vancouver). Published by Nightwood Editions, Cut to Fortress was released last April in 2022. His poetry collection confronts colonialism, focusing on relationships, grief, and intergenerational wounds. 

In the meantime, you can find the author online on Facebook or @Tawahum on Instagram and Twitter

Opening poetry readers include Joe Enns, Sam Bollinger, and Tianna Vertigan. We hope to see you there for our 2023 Portfolio Poetry Reading!
