Outdoor poetry picnic for kids being hosted be The Albany
Deptford venue The Albany is hosting an outdoor poetry picnic for kids from six years old upwards on June 20 at 2pm.
Poet Simon Mole and musician Gecko will join The Big Albany Poetry Picnic, performing songs and encouraging children to write their own poems.
The audience will also have the chance to share the stage and perform their poems with the show’s professional performers for the grand finale.
Simon Mole, said: “Poetry is about looking closely at the world around you, thinking carefully and creatively about it, then shaping those ideas and opinions into something you can share with others.
“These poetry skills are part of a mindset that you carry with you beyond the brief moments of actually putting pen to paper.
“Poetry Picnic is about having fun and empowering young people to make their world a better place, one poem at a time!”
