Poetry Evening with Mark Bardsley, Kate Potts and Philip Rush

  • The Museum in the Park Stratford Park, Stratford Road Stroud, Gloucestershire, England, GL5 4AF United Kingdom (map)

Join us for an evening of readings and good company, with books and drinks available to buy.

Bloom Town, the new pamphlet by Mark Bardsley, explores the back-lanes of Shropshire, bringing to life the county's distinctiveness in landscape and characters.
The book is enriched by Mark's own drawings.


Kate Potts' book, Feral, was published by Bloodaxe Books and was a Poetry Book Society Recommendation. "These poems are luminous despatches from the charged, porous boundary between ‘animal’ and ‘human’."

Philip Rush has a new book of poems and photographs from Garlic Press, Camera Obscura. The poems in various ways trace the progress of a year from Samhain to Samhain.

Doors open 7.30pm for 8pm start.

Free entry. Refreshments. Books for sale (cash preferred). All welcome, no need to book but please call ahead if you require accessible parking (01453 763394).
