Café Writers presents to you….monthly readings of poetry and prose of extremely high quality in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. There are also open mic slots every month so do come along and share something of your own.
Meetings are currently held online through Zoom. Please look at the programme for details. A link enabling you to book tickets and open mic slots via Eventbrite will appear here about ten days before each event. We hope to re-introduce some ‘In Person’ events, alongside continuing Zoom events at some point in 2022 and will provide details on this website and via our email newsletter and social media as soon as they are confirmed.
To join our email list for news of upcoming events, please email: info@cafewriters.co.uk
This will be a free event, but if you would like to send us a donation, you can do so here through PayPal https://paypal.me/CafeWriters?locale.x=en_GB
When you walk into a room with a living, responsive poetry culture in it, you feel it in the air. Like last night @CafeWriters – Zoom-space feeling house-warmed and human
