"Whether you've never shared a poem before, you're still working up the nerve, or you;ve been doing this for years, this one is for you. Bring something you wrote at 2am, something you have read a hundred times, or grab one of our poetry books to share one. No pressure, no judgment, just words and a room of people who want to listen.
New voices, nervous voices, confident voices, familiar faces, new faces - all welcome!"
