James Reaney Memorial Lecture: Snapshots of Jamie with Jeff Culbert
Hosted by Words Artistic Director Josh Lambier
19 October, 1PM - 3PM
In conversation with Jeff Culbert and Josh Lambier of WordsFest, this Lecture series celebrates the legacy of London poet and playwright James Crerar (Jamie) Reaney (1926-2008) and his late wife, the poet Colleen Thibaudeau. Its 15th edition is shaped by Reaney’s friendship and collaborations with Jeff Culbert, a connection that began in the 1980s. With Josh as tour guide, Jeff recalls his roles in the Reaney creative process and will be performing selected readings and songs on this journey.
