AA Writing Centre Head and poet Claire Potter is invited to create a new work with poet Katerina Koulouri for the 2024 European Poetry Festival

AA Writing Centre Head and poet Claire Potter has been invited to join fellow poet Katerina Koulouri as part of the 2024 European Poetry Festival.

The European Poetry Festival is the biggest consistent celebration of continental poetry in the UK. For seven years as a festival, and a decade as an event series, over 1000 European poets have performed new collaborations across the British Isles. The festival celebrates, in the UK and beyond, the grand resurgence in avant-garde and literary poetry that has marked the 21st century across Europe. It aims to not only innovate what a live poetry experience might be, but to inculcate community and engagement between poets across the continent, as well as between new audiences and complex poetries. The festival was founded and is directed by SJ Fowler. Find out more about the European Poetry Festival here.

The reading will take place at 7pm BST on Saturday 22 June at the Rich Mix Arts Centre on Bethnal Green Road in London. The event is free to attend and to find out more, click here.
