Poetry in Translation

Thursday, October 30, 2025

6:30 pm – 8:00 pm

VPL Central Library

Montalbano Family Theatre, Level 8

Join us for an evening lost in translation with three talented poets as they discuss the often overlooked art of translation. How do you carry a book from one language to another, line by line, with precision? UBC Associate Professor Bronwen Tate will moderate the discussion with poets Rhea Tregebov, Rahat Kurd and Deborah Woodard.
