We are seeking environmental authors to collaborate with us to promote our Reading Series, which is an effort to educate (and entertain!) members of the community on environmental issues. The Reading Series will consist of an author reading from one of his or her books focusing on wilderness, natural resources, conservation, or other similar topics. The book may be non-fiction, prose, or fiction. After a brief reading and discussion of the book, the author may answer questions, and sign and sell copies of his or her book.
We plan to hold one or two reading events per year, each one lasting about two hours.
Fraser Riverkeeper and partner H2O Plus launched our first of the series at H2O Plus’s store on Robson to celebrate World Water Day this year. Jordan Scott read from his poetry chapbook Silt–poems related to the Fraser River. During this series, H2O Plus donated a portion of sales during the in-store event to Fraser Riverkeeper and offered event shoppers a discounted coupon.
To get involved, please contact Mary at Fraser Riverkeeper.
