Let your GOB be heard as we share news and ideas for our poetry collective in 2026, with hot food and an open mic to boot.
About this Event

As we close the chapter on an incredible 2025, it’s time to gather, reflect, and celebrate everything the GOBS Collective has achieved this past year. From groundbreaking projects to personal milestones, our community has plenty to be proud of — and even more to look forward to.

Join us for the GOBS Winter Warm-Up, where we’ll look back at our shared successes and turn the page to a fresh new year. We’ll be sharing updates on changes within the GOBS Collective, opening the floor for your questions, and creating space for honest conversation about what’s ahead.

Expect:


📊 Bridie’s annual PowerPoint presentation — an iconic, unmissable highlight of the year
Open mic time — share poetry, stories, ideas, visions, or questions
🔥 Hot food — warm plates, warm hearts
🤝 Connection & community — meet fellow GOBS members, chat, mingle, and spark new collaborations
📣 Future planning — bring your dreams and plans for 2026; let’s build the year together

Come celebrate, connect, and co-create the next chapter for the GOBS Collective. Everyone in the GOBS community is welcome — bring your energy, your voice, and your hopes for the future.

Let’s warm up the winter, together.
