Velvetine Verses: Scotland's Young Makars Poetry Evening

The young makars represent some of the nation's best new talent writing and performing poetry in English, Scots and Scottish Gaelic. This special event will give a flavour of their diverse creative styles. The programme includes harp and guitar accompaniment.
Ria Smart, our guest curator and young makar alumna, says: "Are you ready to have you heart crackled, aching, twisting, jolting, releasing and, maybe, even...deeply seen?"
