Festival Office Phone: (306) 371-9800 | Email: [email protected] Greetings and Welcome

I am delighted to extend greetings on behalf of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Queen of Canada, to everyone taking part in the 9th annual The Word On The Street Festival in Saskatoon.

For most of us, even before we learned the alphabet, others read to us, and so literature is foundational in our lives. We rely on our literacy skills at school and later in our professions, in our interactions with others in our homes and communities, and for our enjoyment. Reading opens new worlds to us, and connects W. Thomas us to others. How fortunate we are to have vibrant writing and Molloy publishing communities in Canada and Saskatchewan. And how lucky we are to be surrounded by committed volunteers who Lieutenant have given us the gift of this Festival, which celebrates all that Governor literacy and books mean to each of us. Province of Saskatchewan I am grateful to the organizing committee and volunteers, the authors and exhibitors, the donors and sponsors for making this 9th Annual Festival possible. Please accept my very best wishes for a joyous and memorable celebration.

On behalf of my colleagues on City Council, it is my pleasure to welcome everyone to The 2019 Word On The Street Festival, taking place in Saskatoon on Treaty 6 Territory and the Homeland of the Métis Nation.

This festival plays an important part in the life of our community and it is a major event for families and people of all ages. By celebrating the importance of reading and literacy, The Word On The Street Festival promotes local authors, inspires learning, and challenges us to think differently by connecting to the characters Charlie Clark in a book.

Mayor of The Word On The Street Festival has grown into one of the largest Saskatoon cultural events in our city, and this growth is a testament to the dedication and commitment of the organizers, volunteers, and sponsors who work so hard to expand on the festival’s success year after year. I would like to thank everyone for all of this work and the commitment you have to championing literacy in our community.

Best wishes for a successful event and I hope that everyone who attends has an enjoyable time. McNALLY ROBINSON BOOKSELLERS mcnallyrobinson.com | 3130 8th Street East | 306-955-3599 Serving Saskatoon for 20 years
