Louis Glazzard / Seesaw
Coffee and Poems Club is all about coming together in cafes and trying out something new. It’s about making writing poetry more simple. You come and enjoy a coffee, hear some poems, and then we write some poems together.
Poetry is always for the everyday, and there’s a misconception that poetry isn’t. People over complicate it and it sometimes feels pretentious. We meet in a relaxed cafe and write poetry together. All exercises are perfect for beginners and there’s no right way to make poetry. There’s also always something fun mixed in! For our next event we will be back again at SEESAW as it was such a gorgeous vibe for writing and connecting.
The session will be hosted by Louis Glazzard at SEESAW. Louis Glazzard is an author and coffee lover. His poems have been published nationally and he released his debut poetry collection Human Men in 2021. He started Coffee and Poems Club in 2024 when he realised he spent so much of his own time writing in cafes and wanted to offer a relaxed event for people to try out writing and connect.
Tickets for this event include a coffee in the cafe at SEESAW. SEESAW is about breaking down barriers between work and play. It’s a workspace and cafe that is managed by creatives. The cafe features carefully sourced single origin coffees including a house and guest coffees.
