The Department of English and the Queen’s University Biological Station are thrilled to foster literary craft on Algonquin territory within the Frontenac Arch World Biosphere Reserve. The QUBS Creative Writing Studio brings two emerging authors to the Biological Station for writer's residencies in June/July 2022. The QUBS Creative Writing Studio culminates in a public event involving creative presentations by the authors, organized with support from members of the Queen’s creative writing community.

This year, writer's Smokii Sumac and John Elizabeth Stinzi will discuss their respective creative processes, inspirations, and their time at Queen's Biological Station as the QUBS Creative Writing Studio's Writers-in-Residence.

This event will take place on July 6th at 7PM. Transportation will be provided to QUBS from Ontario Hall (Queen's Campus) at 5pm.
