The Frye Festival was very excited to learn that the new District 2 school in Moncton's North End will be named after Northrop Frye. We honour Frye each year through our Festival and are very happy that students will be feeding their imaginations at this new school
Are you voting every day? Vote daily to help Moncton win a bronze, life-sized sculpture of Northrop Frye sitting on a park bench, reading a book outside the Moncton Public Library. You can also watch our video.

Thank you to all the volunteers, sponsors, partners and fans who helped make this another successful year. If you have any suggestions or comments for the Frye Festival Team, please email info@frye.ca. Until next time, we leave you with these words by Jesse Robichaud, our Poet flyé:

| Life between the mouths of an uncaged river, an enraged volcano, and rampaged poets |
|
We may be in more trouble than we may know Waiting for a crash course in everything. Free-range desire Nul raison d’épargner ses mots, Les cris des poètes s’enchainent Ni bodyguards ou gardes-corps (gardes-fous). Sans peur des poètes, ni des hauteurs, Runaway volcano - délit de fuite. Qu’est-ce que je mets sur facebook j’ai ainque so much de characters? Public prophets on the city bus. Uncaged fire Here’s a toast to those who clap first. And a toast to those who make it all possible, and keeps the writer’s voice alive, aloud. And we should not forget the biggest toast of all. And to the volunteers, stricken by the ‘bénévolat’ virus. A river of colour, of symbols that flutter, of paint and vibrating strings ---
