Poetry in Union: Railway Lines and Valentines

In a special partnership between the League of Canadian Poets and Union Station, Toronto will bring poetry to the general public, making poetry accessible and interactive, using the spirit of Valentine's Day to offer people personalized poetry as gifts. It will also be a meaningful introduction to the potential of the renovated Union Station.  

6 poets will take shifts writing you poems on the spot. Join Dominique Bernier-Cormier, Ronna Bloom, Michael Fraser, Kate Marshall Flaherty, Suparna Ghosh, Jessica Heimstra, and Rajinderpal S. Pal. The event will also feature an introduction from Toronto’s Poet Laureate, Anne Michaels, and spoken word performances by  Lara Bozabalian and SPIN El Poeta.

I will be there writing from 2-3PM .
