This Stirred will be a celebration of the artist Frida Kahlo, her passionate imagery that is both celebratory and poignant.
It will also be a celebration of all things feminist and poetry orientated, and our special guests:
SUZANNE BATTY
Suzanne’s first collection of poems “The Barking Thing” was published by Bloodaxe in 2007. She has recently won the Anne Born prize which gives her time with poet-mentor Penelope Shuttle. She hopes to finish her second collection, with Penelope’s help, very soon! Suzanne teaches creative writing at Sheffield Hallam University and in the community. She is particularly committed to working with people experiencing or recovering from mental distress. She also writes short fiction and for theatre. Suzanne lives in Manchester, UK.
NADINE ANDIE
New to poetry but not to writing, she is a compelling reader and is currently crafting a novel. We look forward to hearing her feminist poetry words.
Sign up for open mic on the night, tribute poems and on theme poems always good but not obligatory. Five minute slots for open micers.
£1/2 donation. Doors at 7.30.
Hosted by Rebecca Audra Smith and Anna Percy.
