Poetry at the Parsonage festival of poetry and performance

On the weekend of the 2nd and 3rd of July, in association with Word Club, the Brontë Society will be hosting its inaugural Poetry at the Parsonage festival of poetry and performance at the Brontë Parsonage Museum and nearby venues in Ha...worth, West Yorkshire. Acts will include Craig Bradley, Kate Fox, Helen Mort, James Nash, Winston Plowes, Genevieve Walsh and many, many more - showcasing the very best in contemporary poetry in Yorkshire. Marking the summer highpoint of our year-long celebrations to commemorate the bicentenary of the birth of Charlotte Brontë (1816-1855), the festival will be free-to-enter and filled with fun and frolics for all the family - a fitting tribute to a poet who, together with her sisters and brother, did so much to elevate this vibrant artform
