Saturday, June 14, 2025 – 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM

CW Coops
3 Mulcaster Street, Barrie

You are invited to attend a literary event that takes its inspiration from the 1863 Salon des Refusés. It is a celebration of writing that was initially rejected. It is also a celebration of marginalized communities who often feel rejected by mainstream society. The authors will present works of poetry or prose that went unrecognized when first submitted to either a literary journal or competition but whose power and beauty will be evident to those in attendance.

Expressions of interest should be sent to Wayne Johnston at wajohnst@uoguelph.ca
