Workshop with Michael Thomas

On Tuesday 3 March, 7pm - 10pm, Cheltenham Poetry Society is delighted to be holding a poetry writing workshop led by Worcestershire poet Michael Thomas 
(see his website - http://www.michaelwthomas.co.uk). 

This will be in the Pauline Baring Room, upstairs at Parmoor House, 13 Lypiatt Terrace, Cheltenham, GL50 2SX. 

Come and write a dialogue poem, a conversation poem, or a poem from contrasting viewpoints! 
This is well-timed for contributing to Magma 63 - on the theme of ‘conversation’ - the submission period for which is open now, until 30 May 2015.

The workshop is suitable for all levels of experience, including beginners. 
Please bring writing materials and half a dozen copies of a poem you have written. 
£5 including refreshments.


"Crossing Counties"

On Thursday 5 March, 7.30 - 9pm, Cheltenham Poetry Society has pleasure in hosting "Crossing Counties" - a poetry reading upstairs at The Strand, 40-42 High Street, Cheltenham, GL50 1EE by Michael Newman, Sharon Larkin and Sheila Spence from CPS, and Sue Johnson and Bob Woodroofe from Evesham and Joy Thomas from Hucclecote.  Free admission and all are welcome.  

This is the first of a series of collaborative events; there will be a return reading in Evesham in May.
