FESTIVAL BOOK

The Calgary Project

The Calgary Project is the first title brought out through the auspices of the Calgary Poet Laureate program. The book carefully matches poetry and visual images, with a total of 90 separate contributions, including a poem by Calgary’s mayor, Naheed Nenshi.  Under the editorship of Kris Demeanor (Calgary’s first poet laureate) and Dymphny Dronyk (a Frontenac House author nominated for the Gerald Lampert award), this wide-ranging, creative insight into the heritage and dynamic of Calgary was specifically designed for maximum widespread popular appeal.
