The event at the Storm Stage was coordinated by poet Bernadette Wagner (and team!!!), who managed all the literary events at the 2012 Cathedral Village Arts Festival. (Great work, Bernadette!)
This year's City of Regina writing award winner, playwright David Sealy started the day. (Dave will be reading on again Tuesday May 29, 7:30 p.m. at Wascana Centre for the City of Regina award presentation.)

It's a team effort at the Cathedral Village Arts Festival! We have a great community of writers who volunteer on the Literary Committee. This year, Brenda Niskala, Tara Solheim, Debra Bell, Paul Wilson and Jackie Lay were part of the team along with representatives from the SWG and Connaught Library. We attracted almost 400 bodies into seats at our 6 events. That is an amazing show of support for the literary arts! Thanks to all who came out to make it happen!
