Writers Shaping Places event

UrbanWords has teamed up with Spread the Word, the writer Chris Meade, and Architects in Residence to host a free event exploring how writers can work with architects, designers and planners to explore and interpret people's relationship with and aspirations for a particular place. It's on Tuesday 30th June at Shortwave, the fantastic new community cinema, bar and production facility within the Bermondsey Square regeneration scheme. The event runs 6.30 - 8.00pm and will be followed by the opportunity to network. You can download a flyer for the event here. For further information contact:sarah@urbanwords.org.uk. Places are free but limited, please call Spread the Word on 0207 735 3111 to book.
