Overview

Join us for a relaxed, welcoming open mic where students share new work in a supportive setting. Poetry, short fiction, scripts – all forms and experience levels are welcome. 

Want to read? Sign up for a 5-minute slot by emailing Colin Herd (colin.herd@glasgow.ac.uk) with “Reading Party” in the subject line.

Prefer to listen? That’s great too – come along, discover new voices, and cheer your peers on. 

Attending on your own? No problem. Our friendly SRC Welcome Helpers in blue t-shirts will be there to greet you, help you settle in and make it easier to meet other students.
