Ghost River Collective

6.00 - 7.00pm

 

The Hampshire Poet Invites series are carefully-curated evening readings in which Kathryn Bevis (Hampshire Poet 2020-21) invites local poetry organisations to showcase and celebrate the best of their work.

 

Formed in 2018, Ghost River  Collective is a trio of three Southampton-based poets, Anita Foxall, Damian O'Vitch and Dave Hubble.

 

Known for the quality of their writing and for their compelling performances linked to place – heritage, landscape, people and history woven into current events, issues and themes – Ghost River Collective’s recent commissions have included the Mayflower 400 project, the Eastleigh Poetry Trail, and the NST City Theatre’s Southampton Stories poetry promenade.

Clare Pollard & Paul Muldoon

Friday 8 October 

7.30 - 8.30pm

 

The festive opening night for the live Winchester Poetry Festival features Clare Pollard and Paul Muldoon. Two brilliant, vital and inventive poets whose work shares a spirited restlessness and formal intricacy. A rousing return to live poetry readings.
