All the Presenters for Festival 2008

In conjunction with the summer Festival, we sponsor a free five-day writing program for teens 14 - 18 that gives them intensive instruction from accomplished writers.

The Festival of Words is celebrating its 12th anniversary. We take pride that our summer festivals and year-round events have presented over 410 talented Canadian performers to audiences of over 20,200 people.In addition to a four-day Saskatchewan Festival of Words that each summer celebrates the many imaginative uses of language, we promote literacy, lifelong reading and creative writing through numerous other ventures.

Appreciation goes to our Major Sponsors shown below and to our other Supporters and  Partners
