About the facilitators:
Kyla Heyming, also known as KPH and KP Heyming is the city of Greater Sudbury's 7th Poet Laureate. She is a bilingual writer with deep roots, a full heart, and a yearning to set her soul in ink and paper with the help of an old, dusty typewriter. Author of "For Those I Have Loved", published by HARP Publishing: The People's Press, her poetry and non-fiction have also appeared in numerous arts and literature journals. A few of her poems have even been featured in the League of Canadian Poets' Poetry Pause. Fiercely driven to ensnare all of life's little moments, she works tirelessly for her passion and her community, so that she may someday lead others to find their own meaning in her words.
Joelle Barron is an award-winning poet and writer living and relying on the Traditional Territories of the Anishinabeg of Treaty 3 and the Métis people (Fort Frances, ON). Their first poetry collection, Ritual Lights (icehouse poetry, 2018) was nominated for the Gerald Lampert Memorial Award. In 2019, they were a finalist for the Dayne Ogilvie Prize for Emerging LGBTQ2S+ Writers. Joelle’s poetry has appeared in ARC Poetry Magazine, CV2, EVENT Magazine, The New Quarterly, and many other Canadian literary publications. They live with their daughter.
