Drop-In Poetry with Kev & Harula

This October Half Term, join us in the foyer of Exeter Library for some drop-in poetry fun with two amazing local poets, Kev Payne & Harula Ladd. We’ll have every flavour of poetry on show, from the very silly to the soul-searching and serene; with drop-in activities and poems created on the spot for you to take home! Kev Payne is a children’s author, illustrator, and former “Bard of Exeter” known for his sense of surreal silliness. Harula Ladd is an award-winning poet, founder of The Poetry Well in Totnes, and known across Devon for her 3-minute poems that she types on-the-spot! Free fun for the whole family! Find us in the foyer from 12pm–1.30pm.
