Cancellation of 2020 Readers and Writers Festival
community · April 2020 · Denman Island
The organizers of the Denman Island Readers and Writers Festival have cancelled the 2020 edition due to COVID-19 restrictions and uncertainty about when they might be lifted. They are exploring options for a virtual mini-festival and an online writing workshop.
This is the archive, not the newspaper. Between 2018 and 2026 this site compiled these items automatically from public community sources — chiefly The Islands Grapevine, regional news feeds and community groups. They were not written by a reporter and were not held to the standards this publication now applies. The archive is kept because it is a useful dated record of what happened on Denman, and it is labelled because pretending otherwise would be the first thing we would tell you not to trust. Current reporting is at The Denman Firestarter.
