The Literary Series is presented by Hedgebrook and WICA, bringing the literary and theatre arts together for the community of Whidbey Island. This unique programming features an intimate evening with world class authors, interviewed by Hedgebrook Executive Director, Amy Wheeler, and local actors bringing their characters to life in staged readings of the work.

On March 12, our Literary Series will feature Whidbey Island writers, Betsy MacGregor, Vicki Robin, and Peggy Taylor. They all have new books in 2013 and will be reading from their books. Join us for an intimate evening with these authors on the main stage at WICA.

LAND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts would like to begin by acknowledging that we gather on the ancestral homelands, originally known as Tscha-kole-chy (SHA-KOL-CHI) in Lushootseed (LU-SHOOT-SEED), of the Coastal Salish Peoples, on the lands of the lower Skagit, Tulalip (tuh·lay·luhp), Swinomish (SWIN-ə-mish), Snohomish (snō-hō-mish), Stillaguamish (still-uh-GWAH-mish), and Suquamish (soo-kwah-mish), who have lived in the Salish Sea basin since time immemorial and have hunted, fished, gathered, and taken care of these lands.

We respect their sovereignty, their right to self-determination, and we honor their sacred spiritual connection with the land and water.

Please join us in expressing our deepest respect and gratitude to the indigenous people of this territory and for their enduring care and protection of the land in which we currently occupy and share through the Treaty of Point Elliott signed by 82 tribes in Múckl-te-óh (Mukilteo) on January 22, 1855.
