As part of our Literary Festival celebrations, poet Mary Duggan hosts an open and inclusive Poetry Open Mic. This is your chance to step up to the microphone, share your own writing, or simply enjoy listening to the rich variety of voices from our community.
Whether you’re an experienced performer or trying out your words for the very first time, this is a space to celebrate creativity, expression, and connection. Just come along on the day and speak to Mary to sign up for a slot. All are welcome, bring your poems, your stories, and your voice.
This event is part of the Enfield Poets Literary Festival.
The Enfield Poets Literary Festival is a celebration of words, voices and creativity in our community, bringing together established and emerging writers for readings, workshops, discussions and more.
