The Bristol Wellbeing College
Dear Friends and Colleagues,
Below are a schedule of events and workshops taking place in Bristol if of interest.
Poem Brut exhibition
We are pleased to announce our next Poem Brut exhibition starting on Wednesday afternoon, 24 May at the Boston Tea Party on Cheltenham Road, Stokes Croft.
Celebrating the culmination of our six-week Poem Brut course, this exhibition features brand new pieces created by Bristol Wellbeing College learners. Poem Brut is led by local artist Paul Hawkins; in it we discover original artistic poetry focussing on the gestural and the instinctual - the random collision of lines, shapes, squiggles, blocks and collage.
