welcome
from Coffee-House Poetry organiser, Anne-Marie Fyfe
Take off over the coming six spring weeks into an airy world of birdsong, tail-feathers, swooping & soaring (& into how our avian alter egos’ existences can be a metaphor for so many emotions & insights, myths & metamorphoses). Immerse yourself in an aviary of the imagination, a poetic bird-land, indulge in the art of bird-ology & discover the thinkers, painters, poets & prose writers who’ve long been captivated by our feathered friends.
Intrigued? Ornithologically inspired? Starts Sunday 30th March (see right, & classes page).
Meanwhile Between the Lines, our popular & inspirational creative-&-critical weekly workshop, is taking a break, with next new 7-wk course starting mid-May (see classes page). But open for applications now as – with limited group numbers – early booking’s essential & the course is always oversubscribed!
