Join a host of Cumbrian poets at our Farmer’s Arms poetry evening. All abilities are welcome, from absolute beginners to experienced writers… or just come in and watch!
Hosted by widely-published, prize winning poet Ilse Pedler, the readings will include some of the best poets in Cumbria, reading their work about lives in Cumbria and further afield.
The evening will include a limited number of open mic spots, but everyone is welcome to either read their own poems or bring a firm favourite to share.
This evening is a part of our Wednesday night ‘Soup Talks’ series during which we host talks and open mics with a captive audience over a bowl of homemade soup! The Stable Bar is open for drinks before and after the talk and those with tickets, get 10% off on the night.
