<p class="x_MsoNormal">The event is an anniversary of sorts. Pat and Ian launched their first collaborative effort,&nbsp;<em>flora, fauna &amp; h. sapiens</em>&nbsp;at the same venue eight years previous. Since then they have followed with a string of poetry collections and open-call anthologies. This includes Pat&rsquo;s most recent solo project,&nbsp;<em>Ripples</em>&nbsp;(Repartee Press 2023). Pat and Ian will be presenting lively, imaginative, and irreverent poetry from several of these titles during this event.</p>=0D=0A=
<p class="x_MsoNormal">Free admission. All are welcome.</p>=0D=0A=
<p><strong>The Forum</strong>&nbsp;is accessed through the Atrium of the Parksville Civic &amp; Technology Centre (PCTC) at 100 Jensen Ave E, Parksville.</p>=0D=0A=
