Friday, 20th September at the Wellington, 7 for 7.30
The Wellington, 33 Steyne Road, Seaford, BN25 1HT
Come and join Seahaven Poets at the Wellington in Seaford – read or recite some of your work, listen to the other open mic’ers (or a bit of both), get a drink and take it all in.
Our guest poet this evening will be Robin Houghton.
