Rural Tour 2007
October 24, 2007 - October 28, 2007

Every year, THIN AIR takes writers into communities outside the city limits. This year we’re collaborating with the Brandon Aboriginal Literary Festival in October to take writers north to Dauphin, The Pas, and Flin Flon. An added bonus: we’re also hosting a workshop here in Winnipeg before the writers head for Brandon.

This series is part of THIN AIR 2007
