Presented by: Cheng Yu Tung East Asian Library & Asian Canadian Writers’ Workshop (ACWW)


Celebrate Asian Canadian literature and discover the next wave of voices. This year’s theme, Re-Generation, reflects cycles of renewal and growth, inviting both newly published and established authors to draw inspiration from those who came before while reimagining the possibilities of Asian Canadian literature.

By embracing Re-Generation, LiterASIAN Toronto 2026 calls on writers, artists, readers, and community members to honour past contributions and continue this important work.
