We apologize for the 2 technical difficulties that we had over the course of our 24 hour Indigenous Gulf Stream that interrupted the visions of two of our amazing artists. We have suspicions around why this has happened... We have early premiered their videos on our YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/@bvlbanchapublicaccess

Bah! My old #fabric supplier is only shipping within Canada. Time to either move back... or find elsewhere to by yards or bolts from.

potentials...:

and I have no idea where else. 🤔🧐 Most of these places outsource the actual manufacturing to Korea or elsewhere or are not #Native Owned.

Not really a concern at the moment as I still have plenty waiting to be used. Makes them extra special and limited editions! 😜

Waterloo BookFest is this Saturday. I'll be reading a scary little short story at 3:30. Come check us out! I'll be helping out a bit with the Indigenous Poets Society booth, so come say hi! https://englishatwaterloo.wordpress.com/2025/05/21/waterloo-bookfest-2025/ @WaterlooEvents #CanLit #IndigenousCreatives #IndigenousAuthors #AuthorsOfMastodon #KitchenerWaterloo

The voter's' packages for the Aurora Awards are now available. If you're a member of the Canadian Science Fiction and Fantasy Association, you can go download them. If you're not a member, it's only ten bucks to become one, and then you can read all sorts of terrific speculative fiction and poetry. My poem "Angakkuq" is one of the contenders, and I'd be honoured if you read it. Go read, and vote for your favourites! https://www.csffa.ca/ #SpeculativePoetry #SpeculativeFiction #AuroraAward #CanLit #IndigenousCreatives #PoetryCommunity #WritingCommunity #IndigenousAuthors

I can finally announce that I am one of the weirdo authors in this weirdo book. My winning story, "The Snow Hath No Queen" also won an award for best dystopian short story a while back.

February has been a dry spell for me, but I did just receive my author's copies of OnSpec Magazine. My poem "Angakkuq" is featured inside. This magazine is technically a December 2024 release but the print copies were delayed because of the mail strike.

I have three pieces scheduled for print next month: a poem in Strange Horizons, an essay in ALOCASIA, and a story in Flash Fiction Online. In theory, a longer short story will be printed in an anthology, but that anthology has been going through delays for about a year. We'll see. https://onspec.ca/

Bvlbancha Public Access is pleased to announce that we have received a $50,000 grant from the Mellon Foundation Humanities in Place program.

In late 2024, the Foundation reached out to our team and requested that we submit an application to continue Bvlbancha Public Access’ mission of platforming Indigenous Gulf South voices. We are honored that the work of uplifting our community of collaborating artists and leaders compelled national support. Our proposal, “Equitable Recursion,” shores up existing programming of the Indigenous Gulf Stream biennial, and grows our work within art-centered convenings, publications, and equitable intellectual property interactions.

This grant makes the 2025 Indigenous Gulf Stream possible and allows our organization the leeway to push further into joyful and innovative media.
