Who said poetry can’t be fun? This is a hands-on, practical poetry workshop designed for children aged 10–13, where young writers will read, experiment, and create their very own poems!
Using a variety of playful techniques—including surprising collective poems and methods for randomising adjective and noun combinations—participants will produce silly, imaginative, and startling new creations. This workshop is an absolute must for young budding writers eager to unleash their creativity in a warm and supportive environment.
