The Sunshine Coast Arts Council, under the guidance of a Literary Series Committee, and with the support of the Canada Council for the Arts, sponsors a series of author readings each year. Authors make a selection to read from their texts, followed by a discussion with the audience.
Literary Series Committee: Dick Harrison, Paddy Blenkinsop, Daniel Heath Justice, Paulette Caillé, Glenn Millar
