Maria Isakova Bennett, a Liverpool-based poet and recent recipient of a Northern Writers Award, is behind the limited edition poetry journal that welcomes work from poets at all stages of their writing lives. This issue is edited by Maria Isakova Bennett and Michael Brown.

Included in Open Eye Gallery’s free series of Writing, Poetry and Photography events and supported by University of Liverpool’s Centre for New and International Writing, the launch of the second issue of Coast to Coast to Coast will bring together a range of the region’s poets. It is free to attend and will also be hosted by Pauline Rowe, Open Eye Gallery’s first Writer-in-Residence. The hand-stitched journals will be available to purchase in the gallery on the night.
