Do you love to write? Is writing the air you breathe, or is there ink in your veins?

The Stittsville Creative Writing Group is a collection of people who love to write.

We meet weekly to read from text we have written on our own time during the previous week, and engage in other writing activities.

This is not a class on writing, or a workshop for manuscripts. Instead, we are people who love to write and share our works. 

There are those who mostly listen rather than write, those who write prolifically but only share with the group, and a broad spectrum in between.

If your interest is in the love of writing, this group may be for you.

Library and Archives Canada (LAC), the Ottawa International Writers Festival and the Ottawa Public Library invite you to the launch of Canadians Who Innovate: The Trailblazers and Ideas That Are Changing the World by Roseann O’Reilly Runte, president of the Canadian Foundation for Innovation.

This remarkable new book profiles of some of the most inventive and creative Canadians and the ideas that are making Canada a leading nation in innovation. 

This special occasion will include a discussion on innovation with the author and Nobel laureate, Art McDonald, and a performance by OrKidstra introduced by Tina Fedeski and Margaret Maria Toblowska. A number of innovators featured in the book will also be present.

Featuring brilliant thinkers from coast to coast to coast and others from around the world who now call Canada home, Canadians Who Innovate paints a promising picture of a cleaner, healthier, more innovative future for us all.

Seating is limited, please register.
