Let's celebrate poetry together! Thu Apr 11th, 2024 from 9am to 6pm

The Day of Hungarian Poetry we’ll be celebrating with a splash of colour as we bring the brilliance of Hungarian poets to life on our #PostitPoetry wall - as usual! 🎨🖋️
🇭🇺🎉 This year, our post-it-poetry initiative will not only come to life in London but we are thrilled that it will come to Manchester as well, thanks to Magyarország Főkonzulátusa Manchester / Consulate General of Hungary, Manchester.

📚Discover works from legendary poets like Attila József, Endre Ady, Ágnes Nemes Nagy, and more as you stroll by our colourful installation.

💫Grab your favourite poem on a fun post-it note and share a video as you read it! Don’t forget to tag us so we can join in on the joy!

Share with us a verse from your favourite Hungarian poem, either in English or Hungarian, for a chance to win a Hungarian dinner for two at The Rosemary Organic Hungarian Restaurant in London! 🍽️🌹

To participate, simply upload a 🎥video of yourself reciting a verse from your cherished poem, tag us, and ensure you're following our page.

In addition, there is a special opportunity to study manuscripts of some great Hungarian poets on our #PostitPoetry wall.
Thank you Petőfi Literary Museum for making it possible!
