We will select five artists from each category to work with one of the award-winning contributors to celebrated author and editor Teresa Toten’s forthcoming anthology, Piece By Piece: Stories About Fitting Into Canada (Penguin Group Canada).
Selected artists will collaborate on a five-minute performance piece, based on their submissions. They will present this collective literary mash-up at a public event on March 28 at Gladstone Hotel, Toronto.
But wait, there’s more: selected artists can work and hang out with their literary heroes, receive an autographed copy of Piece By Piece and an awesome prize pack.
