APRIL – NEW VENUE – THE LOFT, ABBEY TAVERN
Our next monthly session is on Thursday, 3 April but in the new venue of THE LOFT, ABBEY TAVERN.
Our theme is If Ever You Go taken from the current UNESCO One City, One Book of the same title published by Dedalus Press and providing a ‘map of Dublin in poetry and song’. We hope to have copies available on the night and more than one HSC regular has a poem in the collection. The move to the Abbey is experimental.
The night will be led by THEO DORGAN and FRANCY DEVINE
