Goosechase is new work from a partnership of poets who have been working with Wild Goose Chase Across Dumfries & Galloway to produce new writing inspired by the wild geese that come home here for the winter.
There will be two public readings of Goosechase
Saturday 14 March at the Wildfowl and
Wetlands Centre at Caerlaverock at 2.30pm. For further information please ring
01387 770200
Saturday 28 March at RSPB Mersehead at 2pm. For further information please ring
01387 780298
The four poets are Jean Atkin, Jackie Galley, Vivien Jones and Fiona Russell. There will be a chapbook of their work available at the readings.
The Goosechase poetry readings are part of Wild Goose Chase Across Dumfries and Galloway, which is a Homecoming Scotland 2009 event that has been created by a partnership between Dumfries & Galloway Council, The National Trust for Scotland, the RSPB and the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust, in a bid to encourage residents and visitors to come down to the Solway and find out about the thousands of geese who migrate home to Scotland each winter.
