NorthWords NWT is a major supporter of NWT authors. It is proud to foster the careers of both emerging and established northern writers by offering workshops, mentorships, opportunities to read their work and hosting events where they can share the stage with established Canadian authors.

“Many kind and loving thanks to the organizers, volunteers, facilitators, speakers and donors, for a beautiful festival. It was an incredible honour to perform, read, share, and listen to the amazing words and stories, the kind and wonderful humans I met hold a special place in my heart.
My time in Yellowknife has become one of my cherished memories. I hope to make it back sometime in the future.

Blessings and gratitude,”
