Poetry, Performance and Film

Live Events: Poetry, Performance, Music and Film

As part of the broader Kahoon Projects, poetry and performance events were held at SET Dalston, bringing together artists, writers and performers to present issues of class from a broad range of perspectives. Together they help to present the intricacies of working-class identity and experience in the 21st century through diverse contemporary art practice, with poetry, performance and music taking centre stage.
