The Poetry Pharmacy comes to OVADA for a special one-day pop-up dedicated to matters of the heart.

Part apothecary, part bookshop and part poetic first-aid station, the Poetry Pharmacy prescribes poems for all manner of emotional ailments. For After Love, the focus will be heartbreak in all its forms: love lost, endings, longing, loneliness, recovery and beginning again.

Drop in for a short one-to-one poetry consultation, where one of our Poetry Pharmacists will listen to what ails you before prescribing a poem and a handwritten prescription to take away. Alongside the consultations, our pop-up dispensary will offer Poetry Pills, books and other poetic remedies to browse and buy.

No appointment necessary.

Age: 14+ for the consultations

The pop-up dispensary itself is open to everyone.
