To say we’re wide-eyed to be the design agency for the Writers Festival is, well, an understatement. What we do for them – branding, advertising, web and engaging illustrations – we can do for you. Creatively, affordably and with a big smile.

ARMSTRONG’S WAR
Each fall, the Canada Council celebrates the best of the previous year’s work through the country’s foremost national literary prizes – the Governor General’s Literary Awards (GGs). Renowned authors are brought together to read and assess the wealth of books submitted. The winners and finalists are announced to much anticipation: Canada’s best English- and French-language books in seven categories — fiction, non-fiction, poetry, drama, children’s literature (text and illustration) and translation. The result is an outstanding reading list of 70 books for all ages, for all tastes. The Canada Council is proud to have Vancouver Writers Fest as a festival partner for the 2013 GGs. Reading is a way of life, an everyday experience, and the Council invites you to read the best of what Canada has to offer.
