AT LAST, THE RETURN OF LIVE POETRY!
Many of us have been enjoying on-line poetry events during lockdown, but we've been missing that certain something you get from the live experience of being in a space with people sharing emotions and conversation. We have a fantastic line-up of headline and guest poets ready to perform in the airy space of our sculpture barn.
Our headline poets Glyn Edwards, Kate Garrett and Chris Kinsey come with many publications and accolades to their names so we are in for an eclectic and stimulating afternoon. They will read and take part in Q&A hosted by Pat Edwards. We will also hear from guest poets Jen Hawkins, recently published in Prole Magazine, and award-winning Ben Gwalchmai.

“The high priest of country cool.” (Rolling Stone)
