Voiced: The Festival for Endangered Languages

Don't miss the chance to hear newly commissioned poems in endangered languages with links to five continents. These brand new poems explore what 'home' means around the world and how language shapes our relationship with place.

Come along to hear live performances from Belarusian poet Hanna Komar, London-based Filipino poet Troy Cabida and the National Poet of Wales, Hanan Issa. Hear audio files created specially for the evening by Canadian Inuktitut writer Norma Dunning and Amajagh poet and painter, Hawad, who writes in the Tamajaght language.
