Other activities

  • Updates will be provided regarding the Book Arts Show in May.
  • We are looking for a new Chair for the chapter, a Workshop Coordinator and Programming Coordinator for September 2024. We will be soliciting volunteers over the coming months. Please give this some thought. If you are interested in putting your name forward, please contact the current Chair at cbbagottawa@cbbag.ca.
