... Comments

On Wednesday 29th of May, sadly, it will be the last of this run of poetry events at Brownhills.

After 36 instalments, 30 headliners, 70+ poetic writers and authors, and a sclunch of singer songwriters and musical combos that started in January 2019.

And this month it will be open mic only, so bring your finest spoken word pieces and/or your best listening ears. Drag along your most ardent fans to bright the audience.

The theme, for those who write to a theme:  Toast

But the 29th of May is historically significant…

  • Most crucially for western civilisation, on that date 105 years ago, Charles Strite patented the pop-up toaster.
