Teesdale Words creative writing group are holding a Poetry Read & Share evening at The Witham, 3 Horsemarket, Barnard Castle, Co. Durham DL12 8LY on Wednesday 26th February from 5.30 – 7.30p.m.
This is the group which formed as a result of the Barnard Castle Winning Words poetry project in 2012. The project was part of the cultural Olympics and Barnard Castle was one of seven towns chosen to be beacons of poetry for the country.
Members of the group are interested in a range of art forms but we all love to read and write poetry. This will be our first meeting at the new Witham venue and we would like to invite you to bring along a favourite poem to read and share. This might be one of your own or the work of a poet whom you admire.
The evening costs £5 per person and refreshments will be available on arrival.
While the emphasis this time is on poetry, we welcome writers of all ages, genres and abilities who are keen to share and seek an audience for their work.
If you can’t make it on the 26th February but would like to be kept informed about future meetings, email your details to me (Judith) at julema@tiscali.co.uk.
