Writers working at the cross section of literary, contemporary art, and arts publishing
With Lara Mimosa Montes, Sheryda Warrener, Rachel Valinsky, Jacquelyn Zong-Li Ross, moderated by Bopha Chhay
Bringing together writers whose work sits at the intersection between literary, contemporary art, and independent publishing practices, the discussion will focus on their distinct approaches and methods of experimental and collaborative modes of writing, teaching, and learning, and what the role of independent publishers is in supporting and platforming these practices.
Copies of recently published titles The Time of the Novel by Lara Mimosa Montes (Wendy’s Subway, 2025) and The Longest Way to Eat a Melon (Sarabande Books, 2025) by Jacquelyn Zong-Li Ross will be available.
Presented by the Libby Leshgold Gallery, Emily Carr University, with Wendy's Subway.
