What makes a literary festival thrive for two decades in the charming town of Woody Point? Join host Joel Burton as we commemorate the 20th anniversary of the Writers at Woody Point festival, an event that has become a cultural gem in Newfoundland and Labrador.
This show is an oral history over six episodes, features heartfelt reflections from the Festival founders, long-time contributors like Michael Crummey and Lawrence Hill, and fresh faces like Mallory Johnson from The Cormiers. Together, we journey through the festival's evolution from its humble beginnings in 2004 to its current status as a beacon of storytelling, music, and community.
You'll hear firsthand accounts of how the festival's unique blend of poetry, prose, and music has touched lives and fostered a vibrant, interconnected community. Join us as we honour the indomitable spirit of Woody Point and celebrate the power of stories to transform and unite. Whether you're a seasoned festival-goer or a curious newcomer, this show promises to capture the magic and heart of Writers at Woody Point like never before. Tune in and be part of this extraordinary celebration of creativity and connection.
About Writers at Woody Point:
Writers at Woody Point is firmly rooted in Newfoundland literature, attracting both writers from abroad and those nurtured here at home. During the festival, writers and musicians connect with their audience in intimate venues, over dinner and drinks, or on a hike into the pristine hills, and soak up the area's own creative talent at exhibits of art and crafts, musical performances and impromptu after-hours celebrations that combine jam sessions, dancing and lots of laughter.
About Friends of Writers at Woody Point:
Friends of Writers at Woody Point is a non-profit community organisation in Bonne Bay, Newfoundland. Our inaugural season was 2004, with the Writers at Woody Point literary festival, and has played to sold out audiences each year. Since then, a number of other events have been added throughout the year, including Comedy at Woody Point, The Spring Thaw Concert Series, Sonic Harvest, and more.
