I would like to draw your attention to two events for Exile Quarterly and Exile Editions in early April. Both are ticketed events with admission fees.

First, I will participate in a special fundraising event in celebration of Exile Quarterly’s 50th anniversary on April 2, 2023 from 2:00 to 5:00pm at the Charles Pachter Gallery and Museum in Toronto (22 Grange Avenue).
There, I will be reading Neruda translations referred to in paintings by Gabriela Campos.
This “Inimitable Exile Extravaganza” celebrates 50 years of the publication while raising funds for the years ahead.
Included in the $125 admission will be an afternoon of food, drink, music readings and art featuring:
Authors:
David Cronenberg • Anne Michaels • A.F. Moritz
Katherine Alexandra Harvey • Michael Fraser
Musicians:
Dominic Mancuso • Louis Simao • Taborah Johnson
Artworks (by, and on display for the silent auction):
Gabriela Campos • Claire Wilks • René Lagorre
Ludwig Zeller • Tomi Ungerer
Reservations (or enquires): admin@exilequarterly.com
519 334 3634 (noon to 4:00 EST)
This is the first of two events celebrating Exile’s 50th and fundraising for the next. The second event is a Monday evening reading and dinner at Toronto’s Hothouse.
Special Pricing: Join Exile at both events for $200!

Second, Friends of Exile Editions are invited to book their seat at an evening dinner at Hothouse in Toronto (35 Church Street) with readings by five Exile authors and complimentary copies of their books and media.
I will be attending this event but not participating in the reading/book give-away.
The cost of the event is $99 per person and includes a 3-Course Dinner as well as all five books by the featured readers (valued at over $125).
