SPUD

Winchester Poetry Festival – a registered charity – is a local and national poetry community that inspires and excites everyone to read, write, perform, and enjoy poetry in all its forms. Our work ranges from our acclaimed biennial festival and our popular competitions, to our wider year-round engagement work with community organisations and schools. We share, showcase, celebrate, and champion great poetry because we believe in its power to bring us all together and make a positive, enriching difference to our lives and to our society. We collaborate with a wide range of partners and businesses – including with Hampshire Cultural Trust and the work of the Hampshire Poet – and and we act as a local. national & international hub for poetry.

Sage and Salt Studio is a vibrant art gallery in the heart of Petersfield, showcasing nature-inspired work by over 70 local artisans. Alongside our gallery, we offer a dedicated studio space that hosts a regular programme of art and craft workshops led by local artists. We also feature The Craft Pantry which is a unique, self-guided creative experience where visitors can book a two-hour session and choose from a selection of materials to explore a craft at their own pace.
