Release your Inner Poet with The City of Poets

A chance to meet the poets behind the community, try out a range of creative exercises, and get a feel for how City of Poets works. Across the session, you’ll take part in three short workshops, each run by a different member with their own approach, experience, and spark. You’ll explore new ways of generating ideas, writing techniques for beginners, and themes that poets are drawn to today. It’s perfect if you’re curious, new to poetry, or just want to dip your toes into something creative with kind people.

And if you’re not a member yet, you can sign up on the spot.

Membership is free and open to all with a connection to Glasgow.

This event runs as part of City of Poets Takeover of Knightswood Pavillion as they make February the COOLEST month.

To see the full programme of events, see our Eventbrite profile page.

City of Poets members receive discounts on a wide number of events throughout the year. Membership is free and open to anyone with a connection to Glasgow. See our website to sign up.

Often called the cruelest month, February, with its dark nights, cold mornings, and that slow drag toward Spring. (unlike poet T S ELIOT who famously declared it to be April…)

For four weekends, the Pavilion in Knightswood Park becomes a hub for storytelling, sharing, learning, laughing, swapping, reading, crafting, and meeting new people who love words just as much as you do.

Whether you’ve been writing for years, just starting out, or simply enjoy being surrounded by creative energy, you’re welcome here.
