To mark the close of the poster project and to raise funds for future projects, UpStart - the group that put art and poetry on the streets of Dublin during the Irish General Election campaign of February 2011 - is throwing a poster giveaway party on Friday 14 October at Block T, Smithfield, Dublin 7.
It'll feature bands, DJs, performances, speakers, screenings and a poster exhibition. And everyone attending will receive a wrapped poster - their own piece of UpStart history to keep.
Somewhere among it all I'll be reading from new work.
The entrance fee is 7 Euro (though it's free for contributors to the original project) and like all UpStart events it's BYOB. 7pm till midnight.
Author of the collection 'Spitting Out the Mother Tongue' (Wurm Press, 2011) and the chapbook 'Round the Clock' (Wurm Press, 2009). Dublin regional editor for Succour magazine (2008-10); co-founder and organiser of the Poetry Upfront series of readings and events (2005-10). 'Muses Walk', a chapbook/artist's book, due in March 2012.
