Author Jane Coyle will perform a dramatic monologue, 'Farm Girl' which interweaves reflections on the Holocaust with the story of the Jewish Refugee Farm at Millisle. Accompanying her will be poetry readings by Olive Broderick and her 'Words for Castle Ward' group, alongside Poetry NI's Geraldine O'Kane and Colin Dardis.
