About this Event

Thursday 4th June
Herstories from Portsmouth’s Little Book of Big Poetry: A Book Launch
The Eldon Building, 1.30 – 3.00 pm
This glorious Little Book of Big Poetry is one of the outcomes of a culturally important community writing project, part-funded by #Portsmouth Creates, where otherwise hidden voices have come together to capture the intrepid moments of inspiration, perseverance, and sheer bloody-mindedness of Portsmouth’s female activism and agency. This eclectic body of work encompasses Portsmouth’s refusal to be silent when challenge is required; it is about standing up and making a difference, even in the face of adversity.
The project has been managed by Associate Professor Dr Laurel Forster and tutored by Dr Amanda Garrie.
The ticket cost of £8 includes a copy of the printed volume.

An alternative ticket of £4 can also be bought (without the book)
