Poetry & Listening

An evening of discussions and readings with acclaimed poets Michael Nardone (Montréal) and Steven Zultanski (Copenhagen) alongside writers from the postgraduate Kerning workshop group.

Join us at the Workshop Theatre for a special evening of conversations about contemporary poetry, cross-arts collaboration and editorial practice with two special guests: Montréal-based poet and editor Michael Nardone, and Copenhagen-based poet and essayist Steven Zultanski.

Jam on Toast

Fresh Junk and Aamina Stenhouse have joined forces to bring you Jam On Toast, a space for dancers and musicians to meet, exchange knowledge and jam.

The evening is split into two, with a dance workshop followed by an open styles jam - accompanied with live musicians! The Jam is open styles which means that any dancer of any background can join in. We welcome those with and without experience and foster a space for connection and exchange.
