Photos from A470 event Merthyr

Quote

Our first live event since October!

Thanks to the poets who turned out to celebrate A470 Poems for the Road/ Cerddi’r Ffordd last Saturday at Caffi Soar in Merthyr, especially Mike Jenkins for organising.

Thanks also to Llyfrau’r Enfys for handling the booksales, Caffi Soar for hosting and the other poets and musicians who came along for the open mic.

Our next event is at Cardiff Library, supported by Cant a Mil bookshop, on Saturday 28th May at 3pm.

Here are a few photos from Caffi Soar to tide you over until then. (Jealous of the T-shirt, Des)
