35th Anniversary of Brick Books

Celebrate the 35th anniversary of Brick Books, at the Ginger Press, Owen Sound - Saturday, August 7 at 2 p.m.
 
To all poets and poetry-lovers in the Owen Sound area: please come and share one poem of your own and one poem from a Brick book. There are lots of Brick books at the Ginger Press - and at the public library - that you can look through for a poem.

Kitty Lewis, general manager of Brick Books, will be there to give a short history of the press.

There will be cake and door prizes.

Brick books will be selling at the special anniversary price of $10 each.

I hope to see you there.

- Kitty Lewis, General Manager, Brick Books
