The Callister Garden, Birkenhead

16th June 2024

2.30 - 4.00 pm including Afternoon Tea

Join local poet, Eleanor Rees for a promenade poetry reading from her recent collection ‘Tam Lin of the Winter Park’ (Guillemot, 2022) which explores the magical gardens of a local parkland and a restorative connection with nature. The reading will take the form of a guided walk around the garden, reading poems chosen for each location. Eleanor will also present a new poem written for Callister Gardens.

Guests are  invited to bring a poem of their own, either by themselves, or a favourite on the theme of rest, recuperation, nature and gardens to read as part of the event.

Chairs will be provided at each location and the walk will conclude with tea and cake on the lawn provided by The Callister Trust.
