Taster session for The Creative Writing Programme in Hastings

Join one of our writing tutors Cathryn Kemp for a practical writing session to explore our unique approach to teaching on our two-year part-time, university level, Creative Writing Programme – which starts in September 2026 online or in-person in Hastings, Brighton, Worthing, East Grinstead, Eastbourne and London.

Meet other writers who are thinking of working with us and discuss our courses with Cathryn and our course director Cathy Hayward in the beautiful surroundings of the Hastings Contemporary.

Get a pen and paper alongside your laptop together with your imagination and enthusiasm and see whether the Creative Writing Programme could help you to fulfill your dream of becoming a writer.

The Hastings Contemporary is fully accessible for wheelchair users but if you have any specific requirements, please let Cathy know - [email protected]

Tickets are non-refundable because of Eventbrite's high fees, but you can transfer to another taster session later in the year. The content in the taster session is just as relevant if you're considering studying online or in-person at one of our venues across London and the south-east.

Know what’s Happening Next — before everyone else does.
