Tupac was a Poet. Kanye is a Poet. And YOU too can be a Poet. Join ‘Words Apart.’ This Monday at Canada Villa Youth Centre in Mill Hill be part of the poetic revolution sweeping across London.

Be part of a thriving community of poets, exchange ideas, create new work and work towards a performance at The Rumi Festival (London’s most famous Poetry event). As well as performing at regular poetry slam’s.

Anyone up to the age of 19 from Barnet can come perform, contribute or simply watch. Every week the poetry workshops will cover different themes as well as special guest poets coming in to perform and host a workshop. From 6 – 8pm every Monday and its FREE!

The workshops will be hosted by The Leano a talented poet and musician. The Urban Poet - a young writer and poet will also host the workshops each week. All you need to bring is your mind, a pen and paper and you may want to bring some poetry to perform!

Nothing like this exists for youngsters in North London, so I urge you come and challenge yourself, perform and go to Poetry Jam’s with ‘Words Apart.’ I know I’ll definitely be there!
