Join photographer Andy Hornby to capture your own images on a historic walk of the city centre, followed by a collage and poetry session led by poet Han Newton with Anna McKelvie of London-based creative production house, Anthroplay Theatre.
Using images taken on the historic walk, alongside local archive material, participants will create short pieces of poetry and simple collage works, combining personal perspective with the city’s layered history. Splicing together Portsmouth’s past, present and future.
Founded in 2019, Anthroplay has built a strong reputation for curated poetry and performance events in London, bringing together established and emerging voices. This marks an exciting return of their work to Portsmouth.
