Glyn Maxwell & Poet Laureate, Simon Armitage in conversation – Expect new poetry readings, laughter, anecdotes & poetic insight.

To celebrate Poetry School’s 25th Anniversary and our move into the wonderful Somerset House Exchange, Poetry School is launching a series of in-depth, unique conversations with some of the leading poets of the world facilitated by Poetry School Head of Studies and MA tutor Glyn Maxwell. We are thrilled to launch these unique events with the UK Poet Laureate Simon Armitage in conversation at Somerset House. Join us virtually for an hour of readings (new work included!),wisdom, laughter and insight as two of poetry’s most experienced voices reminisce, shoot the breeze and let you in on the secrets they have learned over the course of their decades at the top of their game. We look forward to seeing you.

Tickets are available upon donation: Please give what you can to attend this fantastic event – all funds from tickets will go towards our bursary scheme and outreach programme to provide opportunities and support for marginalised or disadvantaged writers. We would like to say a HUGE thank you for your support in this vital area of our work. Sally and Poetry School Team.
