It will mark first time the Speaker Series has come to Northumberland and will feature Margaret Atwood in conversation with journalist Rachel Giese on April 11 at the Capitol Theatre in Port Hope.
Atwood, celebrated for her thought-provoking novels like The Handmaid’s Tale, will explore themes of social change, politics, and her extensive literary career.
“Loyalist College is deeply committed to enriching the communities we’re a part of,” says Loyalist College President and CEO Mark Kirkpatrick. “With the expansion of our presence into Port Hope, we’re excited to bring our Speaker Series to Northumberland’s residents, starting with a chance to hear from one of Canada’s leading literary figures, Margaret Atwood. Atwood is renowned for her honest and visionary insights, and her talk will undoubtedly offer deep reflections on our current era.”
Tickets are available for $10. Visit Speaker Series : Loyalist College to learn more. All proceeds from this event will be donated to the Loyalist College Student Food Cupboard and used to support students facing food insecurity.
