Calling all Poets! After the success of the inaugral 2010 poetry writing competition, we are happy to announce the event will be repeated in 2011. We are keen to showcase and promote the creative talents of our local pople and based on the response last year, we are indeed blessed with many artistic people willing to share their work. There is no particular topic and comedic poems would be as welcome as any serious work. All entries are judged anonymously so we encourage all to get involved. The recital evening last year was a wonderful success. The winners read their poems and the children from Turners Hill C of E School also read some of their own compositions. Mr Burcombe from the school read his favourite poem and we were also treated to Fr Tim’s partcipation. All this was enjoyed whilst sipping a glass of wine and perusing the art. The recital this year will be on Thursday 17th November starting around 6pm in St Leonard’s Church, Turners Hill. © Turners Hill Arts Festival 2011
