HighWater Press, an imprint of Portage & Main Press, publishes stories by emerging and established Indigenous writers, many of which go on to receive critical acclaim. Tonight we celebrate the launch of seven new graphic novels that honour and support Indigenous resurgence by amplifying narratives that share joy, creativity, strength, bravery, and community. Presented as part of the Prairie Comics Festival.
This event will be hosted live in the Atrium of McNally Robinson Booksellers, Grant Park and also available as a simultaneous YouTube stream.
Join the authors, illustrators, and contributors as they share their stories and then stick around to meet with the creators and have copies of their work signed. Hosted by Michael Redhead Champagne, award-winning community organizer, public speaker, and a proud member of Shamattawa First Nation - not to mention the subject of Little by Little, one of the books being launched this evening.
Participants include author Albert McLeod, contributor Elaine Mordoch, and artist Alice RL (Between the Pipes); author David A. Robertson and artist Scott B. Henderson (God Flare); author Jen Storm and artist Ryan Howe (Little Moons); author Sonya Ballantyne (also script writer for Between the Pipes) and artist Rhael McGregor (Little by Little); author Tasha Spillett (We Are the Medicine); and author Gitz Crazyboy and letterer Toben Racicot (The Rez Doctor).
