Coming Up...
Marlipins Museum | 3rd - 5th October 2025
A Celebration of Sussex Poetry
“The great hills of the South Country, They stand along the sea;
And it's there walking in the high woods, That I could wish to be…”
To mark this year's National Poetry Day, embark on a trip through time as we meet some of the county's most acclaimed wordsmiths!
Hilaire Belloc, illustrious poet (and wine-enthusiast!), is your host for the evening as he introduces us to three other writers to celebrate some of Sussex's best-loved poems and the stories behind them. Expect tales of wartime, cruel crime and just a little bit of rhyme as we take an informative and entertaining trip through meter and verse.
Written by Ethan Taylor. Produced as part of Shoreham WordFest in association with Marlipins Museum.
