We are excited to welcome Jo Güstin as a featured reader for this event. Jo Güstin is a published writer, comedian, creative producer, and public speaker who tells the dopest queer African jokes and stories in French and English. Intersectionality Black feminist, she uses fiction and her dry wit to celebrate Black and queer joy.
This event is presented in partnership with, Espaces francophones (UBC Okanagan) et Centre de la Francophonie (UBC, Vancouver), the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies (Programme de français), and Okanagan School of Education (Parcours français).
Both food and drink will be available from BNA. There are two single-user, gender-neutral washrooms available and the space is wheelchair accessible.
IWC programming is made possible by the City of Kelowna, the Faculty of Creative and Critical Studies at UBC Okanagan, and BNA Brewery.
We respectfully acknowledge that we live and work in the unceded, ancestral territory of the Syilx people. It is a privilege to be able to put on events as uninvited guests on their land.
