At this weekend's Test, Bill Kennedy + Darren Wershler-Henry and Jessica Smith. A great line-up! Click here for further details, map & directions!

The goal of the Test Reading Series is to provide its audience with an opportunity for immersion in vital works of contemporary poetry within a context that facilitates inquiry. Held at Mercer Union, a Centre for Contemporary Art, Test also encourages mutual awareness and dialogue among members of Toronto’s various arts communities.

Each monthly installment of Test features two poets, each of whom reads for 30–40 minutes. The readings are followed by a brief question and answer period. Most readings will be recorded, and sound files will be posted on this website. This site also features contextual documentation for each reader.

Admission is pay what you can ($5 recommended), all of which benefits the readers. The series also features cheap beer, the sale of which benefits Mercer Union.

Test is curated by Mark Truscott. {titleflag:ca}
