Two inspiring and thought provoking music and poetry events celebrating the vision of William Blake.
🌻Saturday 9th August🌻
Each year, we call on Blake, our great avatar. Our elder still oversees the plight of the children of Albion. He knows that our trials are no different now than when he lived, struggled, and raged against the tide of the Industrial Age. He knows, as we know, that things have come to a head. He knows, as we know, that this is the time to voice all aspects of the revolution. There is no time left to permit the wanton destruction of Gaia in all her dimensions. William Blake is everywhere.

Bring Blake’s words or your own Blake-inspired poems and songs to a joyous gathering to imbue our lives and our town with the vibration of BLAKE!

Each event has its own special atmosphere—we’d love to see you at one, or even both!
