Out of the Depths - Words and Music at Alderton and Great Witcombe, Gloucestershire

We are pleased to be presenting Out of the Depths - an evening of poetry and music - at the church of St Margaret's, Alderton, Gloucestershire, at 7pm on Wednesday 6 March.  Tickets are £5 (in advance or on the door) and will include refreshments at the end of the evening. 

 We will be repeating the programme at the church of St Mary's, Great Witcombe, Gloucestershire, at the slightly later time of 7.30pm the following evening, Thursday 7 March.  Refreshments will be served at the end of the evening, and a retiring collection will be made.

Come and hear poetry from the past 5 centuries on themes of looking for hope and acceptance during times of uncertainty and doubt. After a musical interlude, poets from Cheltenham Poetry Society will read their own work on similar themes.

Poetry and Film event in April - recommended

This is a collaborative project by Chaucer Cameron, a member of Cheltenham Poetry Society, and photographer Helen Dewbery.  Looking forward to attending this - and happy to promote it here.

Next Reading Group Meeting Tuesday 19 February

The next meeting of the Poetry Reading Group will be at Parmoor House, Lypiatt Terrace (parallel to Lypiatt Road), Cheltenham 7pm - 10pm on Wednesday, 19 February.  Please select a contemporary poet whom you find interesting, bring about 8 prints of 3 - 4 of their poems, and share with the rest of the group why you find their work interesting.  This is an opportunity to introduce new poets to the group, and to keep our awareness of the contemporary poetry scene up to date.  Just £2 to include refreshments - excellent value!
