Books in the Park poetry workshop

Why write about flowers now? Is it a luxury to write about birds? Can writing about trees help to move us towards a better world?

In the context of worrying geopolitics, Helen Bowell’s writing workshop will ask what paying attention to nature can do for us and our world. Together, we’ll read and discuss contemporary nature poetry and write our own poems in response, seeking a way to write poems that don’t claim to have the answers but which are curious, open-hearted and contain multitudes.

You don’t need any experience to come along – just bring something to write with.
