Wednesday 24 June: The Writer’s Bloc Creative Writing Group

Spend your mid-week morning tapping into your creative side at Bootle Library. This community-facilitated workshop gathers fortnightly to provide a warm, encouraging environment for adult writers of all levels. Whether you are working on poetry, short stories, a personal memoir, or just looking to try some free-writing exercises to prompt new ideas, you can join the group for a chat and a brew.


Thursday 25 June: “Bright Side of Life” Exhibition

There’s still time to see a brand new exhibition by the Holmeswood Art Group at the ArtHouse Gallery. Named “The Bright Side of Life,” the collection features various styles and media centred around the theme of capturing small, everyday moments of joy.

  • Time: 10:00am – 3:00pm (The gallery is open Tuesday to Saturday until 4 July)
  • Location: ArtHouse Gallery, 65 Eastbank Street, Southport (PR8 1EJ)

Friday 26 June: Rainbow Network Book Club

  • Where: Crosby Library, Crosby Road North, Waterloo

Close out the working week by joining an inclusive community space hosted in partnership with Sefton Council’s Rainbow Network. The book club is gathering on Friday afternoon at Crosby Library to discuss Pride by Tim Tate, which explores the real-life oral histories and lived experiences behind the 1984 miner solidarity movement.
