An in-person meet up to find out more and share your views about the forthcoming National Poetry Centre being developed in Leeds.

What do you think about a national poetry centre?

It's all systems go for The National Poetry Centre! (https://nationalpoetrycentre.org.uk/)Based in Leeds, we are creating an exciting space for everyone to enjoy poetry and creativity. One of our missions is to connect with our most local communities of Leeds, poets and writers. So you're invited to this in-person to meeting to help shape this new national centre, co-ordinated in partnership with Yorkshire Poets Society and poet Jack Collins.

Come and share your thoughts with us about how a building like this could support you and the work that you already do locally. What would tempt you to get involved or participate? What might be the barriers to visiting the building and what types of activities would you like to see happen there?

The session will be led and facilitated by, Ben Payne and Gerald Richards ofB&G Partners (https://www.bandgpartners.com). You can read more about our storyhere. (https://bandgpartners.com/our-story/)
