“Can You Hear Me?” Spoken Word Night

Thursday 28 October 2021

As part of ongoing “Celebrating Culture” campaign, The Students’ Union at UWE present this open mic night on the theme of “Can You Hear Me? A Celebration of Cultural Identities” held at the Drama Theatre located on Bower Ashton Campus.

 

The event aims to celebrate Black History Month and features local poets such as Malaika Kegode, Sophia Harari, and Ella Otomewo, followed by a short open mic section.
