Join MOCA Toronto in hosting and celebrating House of Anansi Press’ annual Poetry Bash, featuring poetry readings and performances. The Bash will highlight the launch of three stunning poetry collections: Jen Currin’s Trinity Street, Hannah Green’s Xanax Cowboy and Michael Crummey’s Passengers. This year’s in-person bash also provides the opportunity to celebrate additional collections published during the pandemic, including Sanna Wani’s My Grief, the Sun, Bardia Sinaee’s Intruder, A. F. Moritz’s As Far As We Know and Mathew Henderson’s Roguelike.

Celebrate these collections with readings from all seven poets in attendance. This event will be held on the ground floor of the museum and act as an opportunity for visual language to meet with written word.

This event is Pay What You Can and recommended to ages 19+ as drinks will be available for purchase.
