Poetry Workshop – Writing Children’s Eco-poetry
Event description
16th March 2024
2pm – 4pm
Poetry can inspire children with a range of literacy levels, helping them to understand concepts through rhythm and rhyme. Would you like to try your hand at writing children’s eco-poetry? Then this workshop is perfect for you. You’ll be given prompts, tips and inspiration for writing poems aimed at helping kids appreciate the importance of the environment, from rivers to rain forests, bees to baboons.
For ages 16+ only, suitable for beginners and experienced writers
Pre-booking is essential as capacity is limited
Instead of a set ticket price, we welcome contributions towards your attendance at this event, so you can pay what you decide (£5, £10, £15). Income will be used to support Northern Broadsides’ creative activities for communities in Calderdale.
