Whats On

Saturday 16th of April, Colin Young and Kai Schweizer!

Our two features this Saturday 16^th April 2016 are eclectic, elusive but worth listening to.

Colin Young is volunteer Publicity Officer at FAWWA. If you google “Colin Young poet”, you get images of Donald Trump, Chris Martin and Gwyneth Paltrow, but none of Colin. Colin translates ancient Greek poetry, has a PhD in Ancient/Classical Greek Language and Literature, has been known to wear a golden wreath (ancient Roman style), but his poetry is grounded in the here and now.

Zan Ross (pictured left) is a poet who likes to think of herself as being from Fremantle, although the closest she's gotten in the past twenty-five years is East Fremantle. She has been published in all the usual journals and a number of anthologies in Australia, and a few anthologies/journals in Canada, Budapest, Paris, the U.S.

Saturday 26th of March, Splodge (aka Marcus John) and Vomit!

Splodge (aka Marcus John) (pictured left) is an English-born performance poet, writer, interventionist and artist. He is dynamic. His voice is velvet smooth, yummy as chocolate.
