About this event

Join us for a special edition of Future Karaoke, a themed literary reading series curated by the Cambridge Writing Centre at ARU. This event brings together Cambridge-based writers, students, and guests to present brand new work inspired by pre-20th century instruments of battle.

Hosted by the Fitzwilliam Museum, and inspired by their permanent exhibition of historical armaments, the reading will comprise a lively mix of poetry, short fiction, and experimental writing that reimagines the legacy of conflict through a contemporary lens.

Event presented as part of the Cambridge Festival.
