Readings at the Rifleman

, , , , , , ,

As part of the community involvement element of the Heritage Lottery Fund award for Kidsgrove Heritage Trail, Go Kidsgrove are asking for original poetry on the theme of Kidsgrove’s history and heritage.

The poems should be brought to The Rifleman to be read out with the possibility of them being printed in a booklet later this year.
If you would like someone else to read out your poem for you, there will be readers available on the night.

Please ensure you arrive before 7.30pm in order to give us the most time to hear everyone’s poetry.

Free snacks will be available during the interval.

You will also be very welcome to attend, just to listen.

We look forward to hearing your poetry, and thank you all for your support.

Free to attend – everyone is welcome.
