We Don’t Settle Poetry Jam
Friday 11th April, 7-9pm
About this event
Join us for a Poetry Jam workshop with We Don’t Settle—a welcoming space to jam, perform, and connect with other creatives. Step into a space where words flow, creativity sparks, and stories come to life! Poetry Jam is more than just a workshop—it’s a chance to explore your voice, build confidence, and connect with a community of creatives.
Guiding us through the night is Ryan Dre Sinclair, a Birmingham-based poet, playwright, and youth mentor with a passion for helping others unlock their creative potential.
What to expect:
Fun and interactive poetry exercises
A space to share (only if you want to!)
Tips and tricks to bring your words to life
A welcoming, supportive atmosphere
Who Can Attend?
This session is open to young people (16+) interested in exploring poetry and spoken word. No prior experience is needed—just bring your creativity and an open mind!

Every week enjoy…
I am Yogi, pay as you feel yoga: Mondays 5.15 – 6.15pm
A weekly series of donation-based classes for members of the community including those who are not able to afford yoga. The class is suitable for all levels and everyone is welcome.

Improv Class: Mondays 7.30 – 9.30pm
Drop-in improv workshops – come and join in the fun! Suitable for all levels from complete beginners to seasoned players. Everyone (18+) is welcome! Discover the joy, freedom and challenge of Improv. Learn to be more creative and more playful. Low-pressure, high-enjoyment sessions in a fun, friendly, supportive and stress-free environment. Improv is not the same as stand-up; you’re not alone on stage and it’s not about telling jokes. It’s about working together as a team with other improvisers to spontaneously create group stories, scenes & sketches. There’s no such thing as failure in improv! Led by Jon Trevor founder of Box of Frogs.
