STST Word Club | Readings About Time

On Thursday 16th April, join Staffordshire St Word Club in collaboration with Readings About… for an evening of readings about waiting.

Readings About is a new literary event in which readers respond to a theme. It’s run by Amelia Horgan. This collaboration with Word Club is its debut.

Everyone has waited or, perhaps, has been the cause of waiting. Lovers, revolutionaries, bureaucrats and all clock-watchers unite. On 16th April, we bring together exciting, funny and smart writers to read for your pleasure.

Word Club at Staffordshire St is a space for collectives, curators and audiences to explore cross-disciplinary writing, from prose and non-fiction, to academia and poetry.

Staffordshire St is an independent project space in Peckham, South East London. The venue facilitates arts and cultural events and provides affordable studios for artists, makers and designers. ​

Staffordshire St is not-for-profit and all income is invested into developing our public programme which launched the summer of 2022. The venue was established as an art gallery in 2017, before then it was vacant for many years after a community centre closed. Originally it was built as a Methodist Hall. We intend to support a range of cultural events for the local community.

Staffordshire St will build on the established record of these histories, opening up again to the neighbourhood and developing a welcoming interdisciplinary arts space. More information on upcoming events at : info@staffordshirest.com or @staffordshirest
