Our Coventry Write On! Writing Squad, a creative writing group for young people aged 11 – 16, are taking part in this year's Coventry Mysteries Festival on Saturday 16th June, 2.30pm.

Join them as they share their creative writing based on the theme of peace and reconciliation having been inspired by a visit to the ruins of Coventry Cathedral. This event is free and will be taking place in the marquee which will be situated in Broadgate.

The Coventry Writing Squad is run by professional writer Naomi Alsop with support from Rose Moulding. They meet one Saturday a month at The Belgrade Theatre and look at all sorts of creative writing. There are places available to join the group from September 2012, if you would like to join or know someone aged 11 – 16 who may be interested, please email Projects Manager, Joanne Penn at joanne[at]writingwestmidlands.org to reserve a place.

Newcomen Poetry Competition

Posted: 14 May 2012 07:37 AM PDT

In partnership with the Black Country Living Museum and Dudley Library Service, we are welcoming entries to the Newcomen Poetry Competition.

 
The Museum invite you to join in and celebrate 300 years of the Newcomen Steam Engine- the world's first successful steam engine – at their Steam weekend event which will be taking place on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th July 2012. See the world's only working replica of the world's first successful steam engine, Newcomen Steam Engine in action as it re-opens for the first time after a 60,000 restoration programme.

 

To celebrate the Museum are also hosting a inaugural poetry festival on Saturday 14th July and we are looking for poems exloring the significance of the Newcomen Steam engine. This can be anything from its dramatic appearance and innovative methods of operation, to the impact it had on working conditions in the mines and key role it played in the development of automated mechanical power and the industrial revolution.

For more information about the event on Saturday 14th July, please click here. To see the full terms and conditions for the competition, please click here.
