Re(Dress) 2024

We look forward to seeing you at LiterASIAN 2024! Click here for event details and tickets.

Embarking on a poignant literary exploration of Canada’s historical tapestry, this year’s festival examines both the challenges and successes of the meaning of redress.  Join us for a compassionate and informative literary dialogue, where writers will explore the importance of amplifying Asian Canadian voices, promoting cultural understanding, and fostering a society that embraces diversity with open arms. This literary festival is an invitation to collectively embark on a journey of reconciliation, where acknowledgment, education, and empathy pave the way towards a more equitable and inclusive Canada.

We would like to acknowledge that we are located on the unceded traditional territories of the Musqueam, Skwxwú7mesh, Səl̓ílwətaɬ and xʷməθkwəy̓əm First Nations
