18:30–21:00

Hosted by Shannon S. Meekings

Poem Share is a low-fuss gathering where language is met with listening.

Hosted by poet Shannon S. Meekings, each session invites you to bring a poem, your own or one you love, and share it without performance or pretense. Think open mic without the mic, without the performativity. Just a circle gathered around poems.

You’re welcome to read, or simply to listen.

This summer, Poem Share unfolds across three gatherings:

Wednesday 29 July
An evening Poem Share.

Saturday 29 August
An extended afternoon gathering with shared writing prompts, conversation and time to linger with poems together.

Wednesday 30 September
An evening Poem Share.

Held in person at Present Tense.

Spaces are very limited. If you can no longer attend, please cancel your place so it can be offered to someone on the waiting list.
