Poetry with Pride - Poetry Session with Auburn Langley
📅 Sunday 24th August
🕑 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM
📍 Port Independent, Sunderland
Poetry is radical self-expression.
It can be hilarious, heartfelt, angry, tender — a whisper or a roar.
It might crack you open, make you laugh, or help you find words for something you've never said out loud.
Your Queer identity might be one layer of your being — a glittery highlight — or the whole beautiful cake.
Queer is a term for all sexualities and gender identities outside the cis-het norm — fluid, personal, and proudly expansive.
Like queerness, poetry is subjective.
There’s no right or wrong — only your way.
✨ No experience with poetry needed — just curiosity and an open heart.
✍️ We'll explore identity, voice, and creative expression in a calm, collaborative space.
🗣️ Performance is encouraged, but not required.
🎨 All materials provided.
🌈 LGBTQIA+ Safe Space
💖 Inclusive, gentle, and creatively welcoming vibes
