(This is an event open to Muslims and non-muslims alike so please bear in mind there will mixed be seating for male and female)
I would be interested in setting up a separate night dedicated to Islamic poetry in a more Islamic environment but only if the interest to attend such events is out there. If it is please let me know.

Assalamu Alaykum
we went tonight along to the Icafe ( me and another sister) and it was fantastic....the poems were freely based on the idea of a role model ( most of them anyway) and some of them really touched us deeply. We were amazed by the courage of some people to share very personal thoughts with us. Had a great evening.
Expressions will be back in September and I would recommend it as it is a great evening out and also a good learning experience.
Salam
