The Art Bar is recognized as Canada’s longest running poetry-only, weekly reading series. Since 1991, it has featured both emerging and established poets from across Canada and occasionally from abroad. It has become a hub for the poetry community, and entry point for new voices, a place for people to enjoy one of the oldest arts.
This week’s offering features 15 readers who will be reading for 5-6 minutes each from the works of dead poets. Pairings include Patrick Connors (Irving Layton), Shane Neilson (Robert Lowell) and Bänoo Zan (Simin Behbahani).
