Fragments A Poetry Trail

Summary

What would you write if you knew someone was listening?

Details

This autumn, post boxes will be popping up across Cheltenham , each with a different prompt to get you writing.

Write a letter to your future self. Capture something about the place you call home. Share a story that has stayed with you. Or simply see where the words take you.

Once you’ve written your letter, post it on its way and we’ll gather the words, thoughts and stories together at the Writing Desk in The Snug during the Festival.

There are post boxes waiting to be discovered all around town – how many will you find?

Find a post box. Pick a prompt. Write your story.

And who knows where your words might end up…

Then, as we get closer to Festival time, look out for Fragments – a love letter to Cheltenham unfolding across the town.
