Why not celebrate World Poetry Day with Arc Poetry Magazine's first Arc Walk in Ottawa, lovingly guided by rob mclennan, who has done so much for Ottawa's, and Canada's, poetry community? The walk will begin at 4:30PM in front of 248 Bank Street, and will continue to sites in Centretown. During the hour-long walk, participants will visit five locations where they will hear about some of Ottawa’s contemporary poetry history, and hear from a special guest poet (Jennifer Baker!).
This walk will be an introduction to Ottawa’s literary history, visiting sites significant to poets of the National Capital Region such as John Newlove, William Hawkins, Judith Fitzgerald, Thomas D’arcy McGee, Michael Dennis and jwcurry, among others.
Come prepared for rain or snow or shine!
