Following the decision to postpone the 2020 festival due to Covid19 we moved Following the decision to postpone the 2020 festival due to Covid19 we moved Following the decision to postpone the 2020 festival due to Covid19 we moved
away from a Mayflower400
theme due to high risks and uncertainty
regarding
travel. We revised the programme
to focus on post pandemic
rebuilding,
social
connection,
wellbeing, etc.We substantially
altered our business
delivery
model to offer a 'stretched'
festival ofonline activity from June to September
2021,followed
by a 3-day real world festival
in October (allowing for a more
relaxed, socially distanced
programme).
We initiated
and fundraised
for Poet
on the High Street. We increased the scope for workshops
and for participation
by Hampshire
poets while maintaining
our diverse and international
profile; we
adapted
our education
&community
programme
with more sessions online,
and we collaborated
with University ofSouthampton
to support
mentoring
for three emerging
local poets (Poetry Ambassadors).
The outputs
of
the revised programme
were:
a) 4x'poetry shots' (xfour online events per month
(June to September)β€”
readings,
workshops,
lecture, conversations).
Contributors
included:
