Wilfred Owen Festival - A Poets Day

Message forwarded by Wendy Lowdon.

A POETS DAY - Sunday 4th November

Peter Humphries Centre, Oswestry School SY11 2TL

We have poets and musicians of high calibre for only £5 - one of the cheapest events in Festival as I asked it to be. £5 enables folk to come along for a couple of hours - a morning or afternoon or whole day! I would personally value support. More here;

Please note this special Poets Day! On the day 100 years ago - that Wilfred Owen was killed - we mark with poetry and music - War, Conflict, Poetry and Peace with poets and musicians of the highest calibre! We have - David Subacchi - Pat Edwards - Gareth Writer-Davies - Richard Archer - Maureen Weldon & Paul Beech - Jeff Phelps & Dan Phelps (with a special composed piece! - Dan has been featured on Radio 3 - 6 music and BBC Wales and played Edinburgh Fringe this year) John Mills - Liz Mills - Bernard Pearson & Ron Turner for OWG! - Mary Rolton on Flute - Mac Macdonald and military representatives, across the generations - Derwen College and Jan Wilkins & Nigel Wilkins as Poet and Piano Player!
