First edition of festival getting the Words out

The tapestry of London’s loosely knit creative communities is about to get tighter, thanks to Words, a new literary and creative arts festival.

Set to take place this weekend in the Forest City, the festival aims to use the written and spoken word as a hub for creativity in the region, said Joshua Lambier, a PhD candidate in the Department of English and Writing Studies and founding director of the Public Humanities at Western.
