Immerse yourself in the rich flavours of a Palestinian-inspired meal crafted by the talented local caterer Zayneb (Iraqi Thistle), followed by a gentle, inspiring poetry workshop (for all abilities) led by the esteemed author Sue Whisler.
Experience an evening of connection, reflection (a year on from the War in Gaza), and healing.
This event promises to be a celebration of our shared humanity, and we eagerly anticipate the unique contributions that each attendee will bring to our collective table.
Explore (and taste!) the profound symbolism of Maqloubeh rice pots, turned upside down to mirror the complexities of our hearts.
All proceeds from this event will de donated be donated to MAP (Medical Aid for Palestinians)

Welcome to Birnam Arts, a boutique multi-purpose arts, conferencing and entertainment venue.
Pop in to the Foyer Cafe for breakfast, grab a delicious coffee with a selection of our homemade baking or enjoy a light lunch whilst browsing on the free WiFi. Wander upstairs to view the latest of our monthly art exhibitions before visiting the world of Beatrix Potter, or the Gift Shop to purchase a special gift for your loved ones or yourself!
We had not planned to present a hybrid festival, however that changed when one of our main authors tested positive for Covid. I greatly appreciated how the team worked with us to pivot and present remotely in part, making full use of your enhanced video conferencing equipment. As a result, we were able to deliver quite complex events with several elements all showing on screen simultaneously. The audio-visual quality was excellent, and our audiences were delighted that these events could still go ahead, in spite of Covid. The author in question was really pleased that he could join us on screen and remarked that he had not been so well supported in this way at any other festival.
