Expozine 09 Shortlist
My book of poetry and illustration: We Will Be Fish has been shortlisted for
The 2009 Expozine Alternative Press Awards Gala
The 2009 edition of Expozine was the largest yet, with approximately 15 000 people visiting 300 different exhibitors (link to exhibitor list) over two days. The Expozine organizing team asked each exhibitor to submit a copy of their best new publication for consideration for the Expozine Alternative Press Awards in one of three categories: best book, best zine and best comic.
The winners were chosen by an esteemed panel of judges and will be announced at the 2009 Expozine Alternative Press Awards Gala:
Wednesday, March 31 2010, 8pm, Le Divan Orange, 4234 Saint-Laurent (métro Mont-Royal). Admission is free.
The gala is a rare chance for you to meet and mingle with the most talented up-and-comers of the local publishing scene, as well as purchase copies of the 36 short-listed titles.
Alexis O’Hara will be your MC for the evening, which will feature readings before the awarding of prizes at 9:30, followed by a performance by the one and only Tony Ezzy.
The 2009 Expozine Alternative Press Awards are sponsored by the Conseil des Arts de Montréal, the Canada Council for the Arts, Drawn and Quarterly and Libraire Le Port de Tête, 262 Mont-Royal E., (514) 678-9566.
