Art Borups Corners October 23, 2025
A powerful new short story, "The Community's New Stories" by Jamie Bell and published by the Art Borups Corners Storytelling Club, offers a compelling look at resilience and the enduring spirit of community in the face of adversity. The narrative centres on a small, close-knit community in Northwestern Ontario or Manitoba, grappling with the aftermath of a devastating flood that submerges their beloved community hall library. It tells the moving tale of three teenagers who step up to rebuild, not just physical spaces, but the very fabric of their collective memory.
