NATIONAL POETRY DAY CELEBRATION: THE ENVIRONMENT
THURS 6 OCT / 11AM–4PM / OPEN EYE GALLERY
REGISTER HERE
(FREE TO DROP IN THROUGHOUT THE DAY)
Open Eye Gallery is actively rethinking what a gallery can be. Come along on National Poetry Day to read your own poems or your favourite poem celebrating or reflecting on what ‘The Environment’ means to you.
We’d love to see you on 6 October 2022 – to hear you read and share poetry on environmental and ecological themes. This event is a Liverpool celebration of National Poetry Day and Liverpool Year of the Spoken Word.
Do you write poems that reflect on what it means to live an urban life in a time of climate crisis?
Or you might reflect on the beauty and fragility of nature.
Or have a passion for a particular poem or poet’s work – and want to share this with others in our beautiful gallery.
We will also celebrate the day with a digital display of photographs from our socially engaged programme of work with communities.
Please encourage your family and friends to come along too as a support and to hear you read.
To book a reading slot, and for more information, contact Pauline Rowe: pauline@openeye.org.uk
