À propos

Experience the highs and lows of the commercial fishing industry during an afternoon of original poetry, prose, and songs celebrating the commercial fishing lifestyle.

Commercial fishermen (and those who know them well) share the excitement of a great catch, the disappointment of an empty net, the allure of the sea, and the longing for home.

Held at the historic Gulf of Georgia Cannery National Historic Site, in Steveston, BC.
