Event Description

Join us for the launch of Refugium: Poems for the Pacific (http://caitlin-press.com/our-books/refugium-poems-for-the-pacific/), an anthology of poems that explore poets’ deep concern for the Pacific Ocean and the creatures within, edited by the City of Victoria’s Poet Laureate Yvonne Blomer.

The event is a reading and performance to celebrate the anthology as well as an opening for the accompanying art created in response to a selection of poems in the book, curated by Victoria artist Regan Rasmussen.

The event begins at 6:30 with a pre-reception, readings and performances start at 7:30 followed by a post-reception at the Maritime Museum of BC, where guests can enjoy drinks and appies while purchasing copies of the book, taking in the art show and the Museum's exhibits.
