Featured Poets

We are lucky to have had many of the finest poets in Nottingham and around reading or us at Dandelions. We like to invite a wide range of poets. 

We have hosted poets who are primarily spoken word artists, poets who have published collections with international recognition and poets who have just begun to develop their work seriously. 

Perhaps the biggest benefit of organising the evenings for the Dandelions team is getting to know the work of our featured writers and also our open mic poets.

From Dandelions' beginning, we have featured: 

Claire Crowther , Sofi Bajor, Julie Gardner, Birgit Friedrich, Caroline Stancer, Rory Waterman, Alan Baker, Leanne Moden,  Panya Banjoko, Pippa Hennessy, Gregory Woods, Annette Pateman,  Kathy Bell,  Maria Taylor, Miranda Barnes, Claire Meyrick,  Charlie Bayliss, Tuesday Shannon, Gail Webb, Dave Wood, Sonia Burns, Katey Logan, Becky Cullen,
