Anyone who has spent time on social media will probably have enjoyed learning a Scots Word of the Day from poet Len Pennie. We’re so excited that Len will bring her Instagram-famous wit and wisdom to Islay in conversation with fellow writer Natalie Jayne Clark.
A poet who writes predominantly in the Scots language, Len will share a few of her passionate, funny poems as she discusses poetry, the importance of promoting minority languages, and the destigmatisation of mental illness.
Len’s event will take place at 8pm on Friday 29th August at St John’s Church in Port Ellen. Tickets are Pay What You Can with a suggested price of £7. Refreshments will be available between Graeme Macrae Burnet and Len Pennie’s sessions, sponsored by Campbells of Islay.
