The workshop „Poetry Going Public“ as part of the Bavarian Association of Independent Authors of Germany (FDA) welcomes  you at the Rhododendron Grove with eight poems on flags and 30 on weatherproof steles.

In addition to that you are cordially invited to a poetry reading right there on Sunday 7th May 2023 at 6 p.m. which will be accompanied by sounds of music.
Let yourself be surprised by the great variety of lyrical styles and essences about sensations, fantasies and realities about the beauty of plants and of nature in a mixture of cosmic, child-like, erotic and philosophic questions as well as threatening influences by all of us.
