LAU Writers: Anthology Launch
Join us for Leeds Arts University’s fifth annual event as part of Leeds Literature Festival, as we launch our first anthology of writing: ‘Labyrinths’. The anthology features work by students from the BA(Hons) and MA courses, through prose and poetry. This event is an opportunity to hear the next generation of prose and poetry writers, across our vibrant writing community. Wonder, mystery, misdirection, and adventure; get lost in Labyrinth. It’s not one to miss.
