Bigton Writers

A friendly, supportive group who come together to share a love of words

last Thursday of each month

7pm

Led by Shona Main

If you write - whatever that might be - or feel the need to, this group hopes to encourage: giving us a time and a place to write a little, speak about wir writing and read or just listen to other's writing. No experience necessary, just a love of words. If you fear you're an imposter, you are particularly welcome.

Poetry Corner

Following the Under the Surface exhibition in 2024 we have created a permanent writers’ corner in Hymhus where people can share their work, do some writing or enjoy some quiet contemplation!

Bigton Songwriters

Support and encouragement for songwriters

Monthly, dates will vary, 7pm - 9pm

Led by Jonathan Ritch, Jenny Sturgeon & Alice Ritch

£10 per participant

In this new venture, we aim to provide a sort of friendly song-clinic for anyone who writes or aspires to write songs.

Each month we will consider a theme (such as lyrics or chord setting) and discuss a specific song. Then people will have the opportunity to do some writing or get some help or advice on whatever is most useful to them: arranging, performing, confidence, getting started, mic technique etc. Each session will end with an open-mic opportunity to share if anyone wants to.
