About this event
Come celebrate National Poetry Day with a guided walk, beginning and ending at Felixstowe library, in search of the ‘magic of the street’, or more simply put, the beauty in the everyday.
This event is free but booking in advance is encouraged. Reserve your free spot on TicketSource.
This session will begin at 12:00 at Felixstowe Library and be led by local writer Aruna Stannard. There will be an hour of gentle walking near to the town and along the seafront, with occasional stops for a poem along the way, and wrapped up with an optional 30-minute reflection over a hot drink back at the library.
Suitable for all ages. Everyone is welcome – including babies, toddlers and their grown-ups. Prams, baby carriers, snacks, wiggles and the occasional toddler interruption are all part of the experience!
One ticket covers one or two adults, as well as their children. So, you do not need to book multiple tickets per person in your family.
This activity will go ahead whatever the weather, so make sure you dress comfortably on the day.
This activity is brought to you as part of our Wild Reads and Festival of Nature 2026 programme.
About Aruna Stannard:
Aruna is an East Anglian poet. Her poetry is mostly rooted in the landscapes and experiences of everyday life: living, working and raising a family in Suffolk. In 2025, her poems won the Welshpool Poetry Festival competition and were shortlisted by The Bridport Prize.
She was a writer-in-residence with the Wild Pages residency hosted by Bibliotecas Comunitárias de Suffolk, Suffolk Wildlife Trust e National Centre for Writing. She is studying Critical and Creative Writing with the University of Suffolk where her sonnets about the Ipswich waterfront won the 2026 Student New Angle Prize.
Aruna has new poems soon publishing with The Aftershock Review e Candlestick Press.
