Join in with the Trowbridge Poetry Society Stanza Open-Mic on Saturday 3 September from 2pm to 4pm at Drawing Projects UK by bringing a poem or two to read - or just come along to listen. This event is hosted by Josephine Corcoran and Trowbridge Stanza, and tickets are available from Drawing Projects UK - more information and tickets are available to book in advance here. Tickets are £5 (plus booking fee). 

A Poetry Society Stanza that meets at Drawing Projects UK, the Trowbridge Stanza was set up by Josephine Corcoran in 2016. Their next meeting is on Saturday, 3 September, from 2-4pm and is an Open-Mic. All are welcome to bring a poem or two to read at this friendly open-mic - or just come along to listen! 

As a Poetry Society Stanza, it is a poetry group run voluntarily by members of the Poetry Society. Although several of the group (including Josephine) belong to the Poetry Society, there is no obligation for anyone to join the Poetry Society. Everyone is welcome.

The Trowbridge Stanza is a friendly inclusive group, a mixture of published and unpublished poets, getting back on our feet after a break of two years because of the global pandemic. In the past, we’ve read and talked about contemporary poetry, read and commented on each other’s work in progress, organised open-mic events and guest readers, and performed our work at different venues.

This event is hosted by Josephine Corcoran and Trowbridge Stanza, and ticketed by Drawing Projects UK.

Our current exhibition, Gary Lawrence: Drawing Obsessive will also be on view, and Miranda's Coffee Shop is normally open for refreshments from 8am to 4pm on Saturdays.
