An annual Jewish book festival in Vancouver will travel to Coquitlam next month for an outreach event — the third time in its 35-year history.
Feb. 9, the Burquest Jewish Community Association will host writer, critic and teacher Norman Ravvin (The Girl Who Stole Everything) in conversation with Michael Schwartz, the director of community engagement of the Jewish Museum and Archives of B.C.
Their one-hour talk takes place at 5 p.m. at Burquest (2860 Dewdney Trunk Rd., Coquitlam) and admission is by donation.
The festival runs from Feb. 8 to 13 at various locations around Metro Vancouver.
