Our belated annual celebration of National Poetry Day

Poetry and jazz fuse as a dozen pitch-perfect poets pit their prose against an intoxicating set of instrumentalists. Be entertained, be wined and dined, and immerse yourself in the joy of poetry.

Our special guests this year include:

Majella Cullinane - Lynley Edmeades - Sophia Wilson - Richard Reeve - Carolyn McCurdie - Emer Lyons - Megan Kitching - Liz Breslin - Emma Neale - Jenny Powell - Kay McKenzie Cooke - Michelle Elvy - Victor Billot

Diane Brown MC

With music by the Bill Martin Jazz trio

RSVP: PRIOR BOOKING IS ESSENTIAL as space is limited – sorry, no walk-ins on the night.

You will need to show your vaccine pass on arrival at the Library, wear a mask at all times and follow hand hygiene advice
