Join poet, Libby Foot, for a fun, interactive workshop exploring poetry and be inspired to get creative yourself.
In the workshop we will look at poems and explore poetic techniques through games and activities to encourage and inspire your own work. There will even be an opportunity to work like Austen and write out your poem using a quill and ink.
This will be a very relaxed workshop, suitable for all abilities with practical support and creative encouragement for aspiring poets.
Duration of workshop 1 ½ hours.
Suitable for young people age 9+.
Parents/Carers do not need to stay throughout the workshop but will need to leave contact details in case of emergency.
