What would an oak tree, a badger, or a damselfly say to you about what’s happening in the natural environment? In this creative writing poetry session, you will be guided to explore such conversations between nature and humanity in relation to the climate crisis. By the end of the session, you will have these calls and responses shaped into a poetic form to take away with you.
No previous poetry writing experience is required as you will be guided through each step. Please bring your own pens.
Suitable for ages 14 and over. Under 18s must be accompanied by an adult.
