We are holding two sessions with poetry group Poets United, these are being held in Whittlesey Library from 12:30 until 13:30 and then 15:30 until 16:30.

These are free events.

Poets United

4 to 5 poets will be performing and the topic will be 'Fen, Folk and Folklore.'

The group has been running ten years and provided many poetry performances at local events during that period (City Roots, P'boro Festival, Flag Fen Eisteddfod, etc.) We regularly perform at local pubs (Northfield, Palmerston Arms, etc. with monthly slots at Charter's and the Glass Onion) but can also deliver great family entertainment (we've performed at local schools and colleges.)  Several of our members are strongly influenced by the Folk and Roots traditions and we include members of Pig Dyke Molly, several Lincolnshire Folk Poet finalists and five Peterborough Poet Laureates in our line-up.
 
Our poetry is varied as our members but always of high quality (all members are published poets and active performers) and content is always tailored to suit the audience: our focus is always to entertain rather than on  'high-brow' poetry.
