In development

Purpose

To connect writers with audiences and with one another through readings, informal gatherings and shared literary occasions.

Intended activities

  • Open-mic and members' reading evenings.
  • Literary gatherings alongside exhibitions and other cultural events.
  • Conversations with writers about their process.

Any collaboration with venues or other organisations will be named only once it has been agreed by both sides.

Programme status

We label every programme by its real status. Where this page describes formats, schedules or participants, it describes the intended shape of the activity. Dates, venues and any costs are announced on the Events page only once they are confirmed.
