Next (and last) Lewes Poetry on Thursday 11th February 2016 @ 8.30pm

Hello Poets

Please join us for our 8th birthday (and last) Lewes Poetry.  After eight years for Ollie (and three for Laura), we have decided to close the club to embrace other creative pursuits - though poetry will always remain our first love!

Please help us in the fine words of T.S Eliot 'go out with a bang, not a whimper'! and make it a night to remember.

And did we mention the free cake...?

Thank you to everyone who has supported the club over the years and made so many happy memories!

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible for our final gig!

Ollie and Laura xx
