With a Canadian writer at each table, the Writers’ Trust Gala is unlike any other fundraiser in the city. Past guest authors include literary luminaries Margaret Atwood, Adrienne Clarkson, Cherie Dimaline, Emma Donoghue, Lawrence Hill, Thomas King, Ann-Marie MacDonald, Anne Michaels, and Noah Richler.
The highlight of the evening is the presentation of the $50,000 Writers’ Trust Fellowship honouring one of the leading Canadian writers of our time. The 2018 recipient is Charles Foran; past Writers’ Trust Fellows include Michael Crummey, Miriam Toews, and most recently, Eden Robinson.
