Not just any Talking Head at the Writers Festival

Migneault | Apt613

David Byrne isn’t just a visionary musician however. He also happens to be an activist. It’s his activism, and more specifically his love of cycling, that will bring him to the Ottawa International Writers Festival on Friday. Earlier this year Byrne, a lifelong cyclist, published his book called Bicycle Diaries. You can bet his talk at the festival will focus on the book, which aims to promote cycling as a transportation alternative to motor vehicles in the world’s cities.

If you like cycling and the Talking Heads you can catch David Byrne at the Ottawa Writers Festival Friday October 23 at 6:30p.m. Tickets are $15 and $10 for students and senior citizens. The talk is free for festival members and Carleton students. The talk will take place at Saint Brigid’s Centre for the Arts and Humanities at 314 Saint Patrick Street.
