Community of Stories: An Evening in Conversation with Esi Edugyan and Michael Christie

Join Story Studio for a memorable night of inspiration, creativity, and connection at their fundraising event, Community of Stories: An Evening in Conversation with Esi Edugyan and Michael Christie.

Set in the vibrant KWENCH Work and Culture Club, the evening will bring together two of Canada’s literary icons—Esi Edugyan and Michael Christie—for an intimate and interactive conversation about the power of storytelling to build community. Following the format of last year’s successful event, the evening features a presentation by the authors, a silent auction, and a chance to mingle with other writers, book lovers, and supporters of Story Studio.
The evening will also celebrate the winners of Story Studio’s nationwide youth writing competition, which invited young authors ages 9–17 from across Canada to share their voices.

By helping young people develop their writing skills and share their voices, our programs improve literacy, support mental wellness, and foster confidence, creativity, and connection.
