A monthly event where poets can come and share their work and love for poetry is taking place in Gloucester today.
The Cellar Bar at Cafe Rene will be transformed into an underground speakeasy lounge this afternoon.
The event will be hosted by Kishi of The Going Goods, health Prime Position and Dave Dunwell. They will be performing some of their own material as well to get everyone in the mood for sharing.
All forms of poetry are accepted and originality is encouraged to make this one of the most diverse poetry sessions around.
Performers who wish to take part can just turn up, find a line-up will be established on the day.
A full bar will be open which will also be serving hot drinks as well.
The event is open to all 16+ but please be aware some of the content will be of an adult nature.
Stephen Grimes from Cafe Rene said: “This is our third Food for Thought event and is a step towards building up to a bigger event on national poetry day Thursday 8th October. Hopefully it’ll grow month by month and we can do something big for poetry in the city!”
The event begins at 2pm.
