Step away from your desk and into the galleries for a creative lunch break.
Our lunchtime art-poetry drop-ins are a chance to write, reflect, and connect through poetry inspired by our exhibitions.
Held once a month, these free sessions are focused on ekphrasis - poetry written in response to art.
Be inspired by our exhibitions and explore new ways to look at art and language.
Whether you're a student, a writer, or just looking for a burst of creativity, come along and be inspired by our galleries.
