Vancouver’s Word On The Street is back for its 13th year on Sunday, September 30, 11 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Unlucky 13. I’m not sure what it will be like with all the library staff on strike, but I understand the festival is going ahead.
The Vancouver festival takes place on streets and public spaces around Library Square: Hamilton and Homer Streets between Georgia and Robson, the parking lot of Canada Post, and sidewalk of The Centre in Vancouver for the Performing Arts.
