In this fabrication\, he has been aided by Luciano Iacobelli and abetted by George Elliott Clarke. \nLuciano Iacobelli is a Toronto poet\, publisher\, and visual artist. He is the owner and editor of Lyricalmyrical Press\, specializing in handmade poetry chapbooks. He was also a founder and owner of Quattro Books\, which issues novellas. \nAmatoritsero Ede won the All Africa Okigbo Prize for Literature–for his first book–in 1998; his second book was a  Nigerian Literature Prize nominee in 2013. In 2004\, he won second prize for the inaugural May Ayim Award. Prof. Ede teaches English lit at Mount Allison U. \nGeorge Elliott Clarke was the 4th Poet Laureate of Toronto (2012-15) and the 7th P.L. of Canada (2016-17). He’s writ 7 collections\, 5 verse-plays\, 5 story-suites\, 4 epic tomes\, 3 verse-novels\, 3 libretti\, 1 children’s work\, and 1 title each in Chinese\, Italian\, and Romanian. \nSpecial guest star Leonard Cohen (1934-2016) was a global superstar singer/songwriter\, novelist\, and poet.  His honours are legion: Induction into several musical Halls of Fame\,  plus the Order of Canada at top rank\, plus winning 3 Grammys\, a Genie\,  a Juno\, the Glenn Gould Prize\, the Governor-General’s Performing Arts Award\, and the Prince of Asturias Literary Prize (Spain)\, etc. Cohen also won—but refused—the 1968 Governor-General’s Literary Award for Poetry. \nComposer & Singer: \nJames Rolfe’s music has been performed by ensembles\, orchestras\, choirs\, and opera companies in Canada and abroad\, and recognized with a Guggenheim Fellowship\, the Jules Léger Prize\, and Dora and JUNO Award nominations. \nPianist: \nJuliet Palmer’s music has found its way to a highway off-ramp\, a swimming pool\, a boxing ring\, and to concert halls across North America\, Europe\, and Oceania. From Aotearoa New Zealand\, Juliet makes her home in Toronto. \nCo-Hosts: Giovanna Riccio and Jovial Si \nSponsors: George Elliott Clarke & East and West Learning Connections \nEveryone is welcome. Let’s mark this holiday season together with shining poetic\, musical spirits!
