About this Event
Join the Poetry School to celebrate Kate Simpson's poetry installation on the banks of the River Aire.
See the poem in-situ first on The Calls by Centenary Bridge, and join us for an event unpacking the poem & the writing process, with discussion on river health and how science & art can intersect.
The night will feature Gbotemi Adediran from the School of Earth and Environment at the University of Leeds, who advised on the project - and showcase poetry-sculptures made in response to the poem by Astra Papachristodoulou.
All tickets include a drinks voucher.
