91²Ö¿â Literary Festival
Discussion, Performance, Talk, Workshop
An annual literary celebration with a week of events on campus.
91²Ö¿â the festival
Each year English postgraduate masters students at 91²Ö¿â are responsible for organising a literary festival as part of their studies.
The theme for this year's festival is 'The importance of art in times of crisis. Art is hope'. From poetry and painting (and everything in between), creativity allows us to respond to the world around us and brings communities together when it matters most.
