Wordfest is excited to present Dr Brian Goldman – Emergency Room physician, bestselling author, and host of the CBC’s White Coat Black Art – live at Memorial Park Library with his timely new book The Power of Teamwork: How We Can All Work Better Together. The 75-minute event starting at 7:00 PM MT will be hosted by award-winning journalist Christina Frangou and will include an audience Q&A.It will be followed by a book signing.
We are grateful to HarperCollins Canada for making it possible for us to connect you with Dr. Goldman.
Our Collective Safety & Comfort
To provide a community-first return to live programming for patrons, authors, Wordfest staff, volunteers and the venue staff, we will be taking the following precautions.
- Masks are strongly encouraged. We recommend wearing your mask at all times while at the venue when not eating or drinking, including when seated in the performance space and in the post-show signing line.
- Bar Service will be available pre- and post-show to enjoy socially distanced in the lobby or while seated in the theatre.
- We will also offer “London Book Service” as an alternative to the post-event book signing. (Patrons can pre-purchase books through Owl’s Nest Books in advance or at the door and authors will sign these copies prior to the event, allowing pre-purchased copies to be picked up before and after the show from a table separate from the book signing line.)
