Eric Craven's Poetry Meets Art:- 'Love, Hurt & Whimsy' Exhibition Opens in New Brighton this March
POETRY by local poet Eric Craven will be exhibited alongside original works by local artists in an exhibition at:- New Brighton's Floral Pavilion between:- Wednesday, 26 March to Sunday, 6 April 2025,
'Love, Hurt & Whimsy... Conversations Between Poetry and Art' is coordinated by Mersey Arts Zone. The exhibition will contain 24 of Eric Craven's poems, alongside artworks by local artists which have been selected to share the sentiments of the poetry. Eric's poems stem from personal experiences. Some have an origin in his childhood. Other poems are also thought-provoking as they portray more challenging life experiences to which others will be able to relate. Some reflect the times in which we currently live, while other tell simple stories. The exhibition title:- ‘Love, Hurt and Whimsy' reflect the 3 themes into which Eric says all of his poems fall. Eric said:- "I'm delighted to link with local artists in this way. I think there is an onus on us to try and appeal to our local community. Just like me the artists are local people. The poems in the exhibit are all really accessible; easy to read and understand. The poems of the famous Liverpool poets of the 1960s, including:- Roger McGough, were easily accessible as well. People related to them, found them amusing and thought provoking." Everyone is welcome to attend the free launch event, at:- 5pm, on:- Wednesday, 26 March 2025, which will feature live readings by Eric and live music by local folk artists. Eric will also be running a poetry workshop for anybody who is new to poetry writing and wants to develop their skills. Bookings can be made directly with Eric Craven by emailing him at:- EricsCraven@Me.Com.. For more information about whats on at New Brighton's Floral Pavilion, please visit:- FloralPavilion.Com.
