We’re very excited to return to our favourite Housmans Books for an evening of wild and inspiring poetry and music performances by people who have experienced homelessness and the poets who have tutored them.
It’s in celebration of the project I AM NOT WHO YOU THINK I AM. Since June ‘19 we’ve teamed up with the novelist Miranda Gold, who started a writing group at Crisis Skylight. New River became involved and have since been facilitating workshops and one-to-one surgeries with top poets lending their time to spread genius. Out of this we are editing an anthology of poetry by people who have experienced homelessness due Winter 2020.
Our events with Crisis so far have been electric. Tighter and richer each time. Watching this most incredible group of poets soar is like nothing else. Not to be missed. Tickets £3 (redeemable against book purchase).
