This Fragile Earth: Creative Writing Workshops

How can we make creative responses to the climate emergency and persuade, nag, cajole, encourage, inspire, challenge and even shame decision-makers from the worlds of politics and business to take urgent, practical and meaningful action?

By engaging with the ‘This Fragile Earth’ exhibition and participating in creative writing workshops we want to get people thinking and writing (poems, stories, letters) about what matters to them when it comes to this ‘pale blue dot’ — home to so much wonderful, astonishing life.

Everyone is welcome. Just bring a pen and your imagination.

This event is a collaboration between the Art Collection and Paperboats and will be delivered by Sarah Bromage, Head of Unviersity of Stirling Collections and Chris Powici, Poet and Teacher, Paperboats.
