The Inkub8tor Group began meeting in New Norfolk in 2021. Drawn together by a common love of words and language, they have evolved into a band of performance poets, regularly gathering to read their work to one another.
INKub8tor is an open mic event held on the High St at the artHouse New Norfolk on the first Sunday of each month. It comprises Derwent Valley community writers, readers and receivers. The writers and readers offer their own or others works to share, the receivers completing the loop to create a communal celebration of the spoken word. Come and join the celebration when the artHouse New Norfolk presents two sessions of INKub8tor as part of the Writers’ Festival.
First premiered at Ten Days on the Island, this one-off show is all about adventure: the places we go, the obstacles we overcome, and the ways we change once our journeys are done. Featuring Derwent Valley locals and hosted by seasoned storyteller Sam George-Allen, The Weft is intimate, expansive, moving, and real – as all good stories should be.
