Upcoming on WritersMosaic

The role of writers as community activists.
7th May 2021
    Tuesday 11th May at 8.00pm – Diggers and Builders – Writers as community activists.
     
    WritersMosaic launches in Manchester with an In Conversation discussion on the role of writers as community activists. Playwright Linda Brogan, crime writer Peter Kalu, poet Shamshad Khan and screenwriter Jonny Wright join forces to resist the idea of ‘community’ as amateur, less good and low budget. Produced in partnership with the University of Manchester and the Whitworth Gallery, the plan is to stay rooted and reach for the moon.
    You can watch the event on our site from 8pm on Tuesday.
