Open late — Inciting Joy & Multilingual Poetry Reading/Listening Circle
Friday, 23 May, 6:30-9:00 PM - Closing evening in the exhibition space (change of date)
Location: correspondences Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Country 39 Sydney Road Bulleke-bek (Brunswick) VIC
Once a month at correspondences, on a Friday, from 6:30 p.m., we explore our latest artist residency exhibit together. Then, we settle down to read or listen to poetry together until 8:00 p.m. We ask our guests to please bring a poem to share/read in whatever language they like. Or, just come to listen. All are welcome - writers of poetry, lovers of poetry and those who might be new to poetry.
On 23 May, our poetry reading circle also celebrates the final two weeks of Inciting Joy, our current artist residency project. We will have a guest speaker with us to mark this special occasion. On this occasion, from 6:30 p.m., our guests will be invited to explore the latest exhibit, and then we will hear from our speaker, after which time we will enjoy some refreshments together. If folks wish to linger, they can join our poetry circle to share a little poetry before the evening ends. Our doors remain open until 9:00 p.m.
