The Pier Poetry Group will provide an opportunity for people who love poetry (including song lyrics) to come together and share some poems or lyrics outlining why they enjoy a particular piece, how it makes them feel or think and a brief background on the poet or songwriter.
There is no requirement for academic or scholarly analysis but rather a more organic response as to why we like a particular poem or lyric, presented in an informal way, that promotes discussion and reflection.
Fortnightly from Friday 9 February, 11.00am to 12.30pm.
The convenor of the group will be our Poet-In-Residence, Peter Roberts and the maximum enrolment will be 10 members.
