Visit the hall to see Luke Jerram's Helios and have a solar-themed poem written for you while you wait!

  • Booking not needed

What does the sun mean to you? An ice cream with friends on the beach? Growing flowers, fruits and veg in your garden? Whatever memories or feelings it brings out in you, chat with the team from the Poetry Takeaway and they’ll have a rummage in the lexical larder then whisk you up a piping hot sunshine themed poem!
