PoARTry Ledbury

Standard

Back in June I posted about a project I have been involved in since March. PoARTry, the brainchild of Rick Sanders who matched poets and artists to collaborate on new work.

The experience has obviously been completely different for us all, I am looking forward to seeing the Exhibition this week.

Leena Batchelor and I have spent the past month+ organising the Launch event and I can hardly believe it is just around the corner. We won’t mention the clash with World Cup football – another recorded match for me to watch.

It is the only evening opening for the Artistree Gallery and our exhibition and it promises to be an amazing evening, so if you are not into the World Cup – you know where to head!

Poetry Reading with Added Art

Standard

The last official event I am organising as Poet Laureate for 2017.
Submission news is coming next month and I will be back hard at event management and organising more extravaganzas in the New Year.
I know many followers of this blog are not local enough – but if you are, it would be great to see you!

If you missed the wonderful DAN exhibition in October here’s your chance to see a selection of the art.

It is FREE and in the wonderful venue of Parks Cafe, Droitwich.
