About the event
Poets are used to wearing their heart on their sleeve – but Oh No Po Co’s next event takes that to a new level!
Bring your old shirts, sweaters, or any other clothing you like, as we write our words on fabric canvases. Bring one of your old poems or write one on the night, either way you’ll walk away with your latest, and most heartfelt, fashion masterpiece.
We’ll be providing enough fabric pens for everyone, but only a limited number of shirts. We recommend bringing your own clothing to guarantee you’ll have something to write on.
If words on shirts aren't your thing, come for our open mic.
