Join us for this eight-week workshop series with Scotland’s premiere spoken word group the Loud Poets!

Who: The Loud Poets have been at the heart of Scottish spoken word for over a decade, starting life as a monthly poetry night, before blossoming into an internationally renowned producer of live shows, workshops, poetry films and more.
