Join Nottingham UNESCO City of Literature's Youth Advisory Board as they celebrate the launch of their first poetry pamphlet on the 12th of April
Friends, family, fellow creatives and the general public are invited to join Nottingham UNESCO City of Literature's Youth Advisory Board at Fishergate Point on 12th April, from 1pm, for a celebration of the launch of Bear Baiting, their brand new poetry pamphlet, written, illustrated and produced entirely by the members of the board!
The launch will be hosted by Annie Cross, Chair of the board, with support from Ben MacPherson, the group's mentor and guide during the genesis of the anthology. Featuring readings from the poets and a discussion followed by refreshments and networking.
Bear Baiting is a labour of love brought to you by the passionate and talented youth of Nottingham. This pamphlet captures a unique set of voices presenting them in chorus for your appreciation. For some of these artists, this is the first time they have shared their work in print. Enjoy the vibrancy of their work as they take you through dream and memory with words to provoke even the deepest sleeper from hibernation.

We have a favour to ask
LeftLion is Nottingham’s meeting point for information about what’s going on in our city, from the established organisations to the grassroots. We want to keep what we do free to all to access, but increasingly we are relying on revenue from our readers to continue. Can you spare a few quid each month to support us?
