Floraville will play stage to poetry and music, launching this year’s Festival in style, by celebrating the light that poetry brings to our lives. 

Listen to poetry and watch a live performance of  “Currents”, a specially commissioned poem by Sunday’s Child. 

“Currents” will also feature in our spectacular new video projection, which will stay in situ until the Final Verses have rung out on September 18th.

Music by Oscar Churcher, cello, and Diarmuid Slattery, guitar.

Free event, all welcome!!
