Festival Program a C FESTIVAL PROGRAM A C . W S F C Discover CFSW 2019 The theme 'Discovery' speaks to 'The Story Within Us.'. Through programming selections, the festival invites patrons and artists alike to explore their lives and personal stories with a fresh perspective, shedding light on intricacies, uniqueness, and seemingly undiscovered elements. The theme Discovery will also engage with 'the curious' by presenting a wide range of spoken word forms. CFSW is most known for the highly stylistic spoken word poetry that is common in poetry slam competitions. This edition will highlight spoken word in its various expressions including, but not limited to, storytelling, comedy, theatre and lyric. The Land We're Gathered On Guelph is located on the ancestral lands of the Attawandaron people and the treaty lands and territory of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and Dish With One Spoon territory. We acknowledge our neighbours, the Haudenosaunee and the Indigenous peoples of many different nations that live in Guelph. As we embark, celebrate and enjoy the art form of spoken word at CFSW we invite you to hear the festival in the context of colonialism, with consideration for the stories that are absent and the need for reconciliation with Indigenous nations and people.
