UPEI Creative Writing Master Class reading on March 5

The annual public reading by UPEI’s Creative Writing Master Class will take place on Wednesday, March 5, at 7:00 pm in Schurman Market Square, Don and Marion McDougall Hall.

The reading will showcase 14 of the Island’s talented emerging writers: Koraleigh Ahearn, Emma-Claire Csernyik, Madalyn Clempson, Arielle Dunn, George Kuku, Lauren Lafrance, Austin Lynds, Noah Mannholland, Allie McHugh, Madeleine MacCannell, Easton Power, Cybelle Rieber, Omaima Shaik, and Hanna Walton. They will read excerpts of fiction, poetry, and creative non-fiction.

“Many writers featured in master class readings over the years now grace shelves (and screens) in bookstores, homes, libraries, and schools on PEI and across Canada,” said Dr. Richard Lemm, UPEI Department of English. “You are invited to hear and meet our future authors.”

The master class reading is sponsored by the Department of English and the Faculty of Arts at UPEI. Admission is free.
