A PANEL discussion - British Asian Women Writers in the North - will be held at Kala Sangam next month.
The event, which is free to attend, will look at how heritage, gender and place influences work and what challenges the writers face.
It will also ask what kind of opportunities can be made, and found, in the North.
Chaired by writer and poet Afshan D’souza-Lodhi, the panel includes transmedia writer and poet Maya Chowdhry, playwright Shabina Aslam and spoken-word poet Suhaiymah Manzoor-Khan.
The event will be held on Thursday, January 24, from 7pm until 9pm and has been created by Slate, a movement supporting black artists in the North to work on a local, national and international level.
Tickets can be booked for free through www.eventbrite.co.uk.
