Taking place on the First Monday of the month (apart from August which is the second Monday!) from 6.30-8pm at The Meeting Point, Stephen Joseph Theatre. Our Poetry Appreciation Group is a fun, informal group where we get together, discover and share the pleasure of looking at classic and modern poetry. We are a reading group and we read poetry borrowed from the libraries or our staff and volunteer’s collections and discuss them. No pressure to read out loud! We’ll look at the poem and decide if we like the poem, if we understand the poem, if it even is a poem. No prior experience or love of poetry is required!! Poetry allows individuals to explore thoughts and feelings that may be difficult to articulate in conversation. Writing or reading poetry can help people explore emotions such as grief, anxiety, depression, or anger.Browse an extensive selection of poetry books at every session
Discover wonderful poets and verse new to you
Bring along an old favourite to share
Choose a book to borrow from the libraries’ poetry shelves
Our poetry groups are for anyone who wants to enjoy the written word and meet up with friendly and welcoming individuals. No charge but donations always welcome towards the ongoing running of the group at https://www.justgiving.com/swrmind
