Power of Poetry: Creative Writing Course

FREE Creative Writing Course (for adults aged 19+)

If you're interested in poetry, come along to the Power of Poetry to see what you might be able to create yourself.

During this fun and friendly five-week course we will be looking at a different theme and poetry style each week with the aim for you to have a go at writing your own poetry pieces.

We will produce a group booklet of our poems to celebrate our words when the course ends.

Bring a notepad and a pen and come along to this relaxed class to discover your inner muse!

Beginners and returners welcome!
