On 22nd November 2023, Flowerfield Arts Centre will showcase Keeping Promises - an evening of new work inspired by the writings of CS Lewis. "Keeping Promises" will offer a platform for writers to showcase their original works, be it prose, poetry, flash fiction, or excerpts from longer pieces, that have been influenced by the remarkable literary contributions of CS Lewis. This event is an opportunity for aspiring and established writers to come together and pay homage to one of the intellectual giants of the twentieth century.
This event will be curated by local poet and playwright Anne McMaster

This event is a wonderful opportunity for our community to come together and share their creative interpretations of his timeless themes."
