Dean Fraser - 'Come Work In Our Factories' Poetry Reading

Don't miss Dean Fraser, a holistic poet, dowsing teacher and public speaker, performing a collection of Poems, 'Come Work in Our Factories', in the iconic setting of Queen Street Mill Textile Museum.

The Poems are themed around industry and work. We begin three thousand years ago proceeding on and taking us through that time when everything changed, namely the industrial revolution. Finally bringing us right up into the present day and how towards the end of the last century through innovations in technology our working life became transformed once more. Yet above all else this collection sees Dean telling the stories of work through the lives of ordinary people. Those unsung heroes and heroines who never usually get to share their story. Some of these are long lost in the mists of time and through the power of poetry get to have their life story told at long last!
This promises to be an interesting and moving performance, especially for those who have grown up in industrial towns like Burnley!
Starting at 1pm, the performance will last around 1 hour. Dean will be available after the reading for a meet and greet session and book signing. Free tea and filter coffee will be provided, and our café will be open if you wish to purchase anything extra!
