Farrago Poetry

ArtHouse Jersey has commissioned the renowned UK based ‘Farrago Poetry’ to produce four performance poems aimed at young people aged 11 to 14, in the hope that this fresh material will tap into shared experiences and inspire even more creativity.

Farrago Poetry, the spoken word organisation based in London is best known for being the UK SLAM! poetry pioneers. For this unique collection they have brought together poets John-Paul O’Neil who has written a piece called ‘Perseverance’, Jersey born Olivia Bouchard with ‘A Thank You Note’, Katie Haworth with ‘HMS Bookcase’ and Dami Okhiria with her poem ‘Vaccination Conversations’. All four pieces were performed exclusively for ArtHouse Jersey Presents.
