In a world full of noise, is there still a space for the quiet?

Ann Ang, Laura Jane Lee, and Zhang Ruihe will be sitting down with you for a conversation about poetry and its place in our lives. Bring all of your questions! What is a poem? What makes a good one? How is poetry possible in a place like Singapore, and can it still make a difference in our day and age?

Whether poetry has been part of your life for years or youโ€™ve never opened a collection, thereโ€™s a seat here for you. We especially welcome those new to poetry.

Spots are limited.

What silences are you carrying today? Come sit with them, and us. ๐Ÿค
