Please join us for the latest event in George Elliott Clarke’s 5 Poets Breaking into Song.

The mightiest songs? Poetry put to music and sung! Throughout this series, George Elliott Clarke, former Poet Laureate of Canada, has commissioned 8 composers to transform 90+ Canadian poems into art-songs of all genres.

Come and hear live performances of 12 songs by 7 composers, with introductory readings by some of the poets.

Relay for life events strike a beautiful balance of creating space to share our real encounters with cancer in an atmosphere of community care that is also rooted in a spirit of hope which embraces the healing power of fun and laughter. At the event, teams will walk a track as a symbol of the fight against cancer and engage in meaningful ceremonies that honour our loved ones as well as entertainment and fun team challenges.
