Calendar

For 31 years, the Boorowa Balladeers have entertained their loyal followers on Australia Day with poems and yarns, all with a decidedly Australian flavour.

Robyn Sykes has presented on many occasions, and is delighted to join the throng again this year.

Cafe on Queen operates in a iconic building in Binalong. Over a century in age, it formerly functioned as a General Store. It is also the site of the former Binalong Tea Rooms.

Nestled on the banks of the Balgalal Creek, part of the character of the place is the numerous nooks and crannies where people can congregate or be alone. Fancy lunch/coffee/cakes in the garden on a warm spring day? Or a toastie around the wood heater on a frosty morning? Or some great poetry in the old glassblower’s studio out the back?

A Brush with Poetry is your chance!

Free Open Mic event. All welcome. Donations welcome.

A Brush with Poetry is an eclectic mix of poetry and other arts, held in the delightful ambience of Cafe on Queen, Binalong. Due to COVID it migrated online, and is currently A Room and Zoom event. Sometimes there’s music, sometimes a guest poet or MC, always a surprise because it’s open microphone.

Enjoy lunch, coffee, cake and more on the last Sunday of every odd month except January (ie March, May, July, September and November). All welcome.

A Brush with Poetry is a Binalong Arts Group Inc event, organised by Robyn Sykes. Lizz Murphy, one of the original co-organisers, remains a vibrant presence at the event. We are grateful to Jan and Adrian at Cafe on Queen for allowing us to use the old glassblower’s studio. It’s a great venue for poetry!
