A LITERARY event especially for poetry enthusiasts is being held from 2pm on Sunday 10 September at the Rosebud Country Club Bowls Club.

The Poets Corner event will bring together poets and spoken word artists from across the Mornington Peninsula and elsewhere.

Poets Corner, a community organisation dedicated to poetry and spoken word arts, has been operating on the peninsula since 2017.

The organisation adapted and continued its activities through virtual platforms during the COVID pandemic and is now returning to in-person events.

The bowls club meeting will feature academic, storyteller, and counter-narrative poet Dr Denise Chapman, who is known for exploring themes of heritage and identity.

Other poets will be able to recite their works during two open mic sessions.

The event is BYO snacks although refreshments will be available at the bar. Entry to the event at 207 Boneo Road, Rosebud, is $5.
