Step into the Live Poetry Jukebox for an intimate and magical experience of poetry, visual art and performance! This interactive installation works like a music jukebox, only with poetry. You are invited to look at the beautiful ‘library’ of jars, each containing a miniature artwork that expresses a feeling or idea connected to poem. Choose one you feel particularly drawn to and listen to a live performance of ‘your’ poem!

Suitable for ages 5+

“My Heart, My Heart: Live Poetry Jukebox is an exciting, novel way of experiencing poetry and offers moments of beauty, calm, contemplation, respite, reflection and reassurance.”

“A particularly memorable treat … sparked the imagination in thought-provoking ways” WriteOutLoud

Young Essex at PLACE

This event is part of Essex Book Festival’s Oh, The Places We’ll Go! Young Essex at PLACE weekend in Colchester on Saturday 23 March.

Join us for a fab day out for families at Firstsite, exploring place, identity, history and heritage through books, reading, writing and storytelling. Our Pop Up Storytelling Armchair is back; there’ll also be bookmaking, writing workshops, origami boatbuilding and Chinese calligraphy, not to mention The Mothership Project, when children in Essex will be exchanging messages of friendship with children in China.
