As June 2019 ends, so WORD2019 – Summer festival draws to a close. This past fortnight has been a wonderful whirlwind of WORDS, delivered through poetry, stories, songs, performance and illustration – with contributions from local people and artists of all ages and backgrounds.

This year, you don’t have to wait long for more … as for the first time, WORD2019 returns  for a special weeklong festival marking #LibrariesWeek from 7-12 October 2019, presented by the #WORDAssociation. Look out for events and activities for all ages, including #LibraryLive, #LateAtTheLibrary and #WORDPLAY events.
