Senator Arley Gill, Minister of State with Responsibility for Culture is appealing to creative writers to ensure that their works are available for display during the Festival and Book Fair scheduled for October 19-24.
“This is where we hope to display all of the books, all of the published materials since we are inviting publishers to the book fair as well,” he said.
He said that interested persons in the Diaspora can contact the Department of Culture in St. George’s within the next few days to make arrangements for their works to be on display during the Festival.
The event will conclude with a grand concert on Sunday October 24 at the Athletics Stadium which will feature three Grenadian writers in Clyde Belfon, David Franklyn and Merle Collins as well as invited guests dub poet Mutabaruka (Allan Hope) of Jamaica and Brother Resistance of Trinidad and Tobago.
