This month, the Manchester Poetry Library celebrates its fifth anniversary! 🎂

Since opening in 2021, the Manchester Poetry Library has developed an extensive collection of poetry in multiple languages and formats. As the North West's first free public poetry library, it has served as a space for communities to explore and meet likeminded people.

To mark the occasion, we're hosting events across the next twelve months including workshops, showcases, and evenings led by Professor Carol Ann Duffy (Creative Director of Manchester Writing School).
