Write Ahead: Free Introductory Workshop with Ella Frears
Write Ahead is a free poetry workshop series for anyone starting to dabble in poetry, giving those curious about classes at the Poetry School a sample of what they do.
Each class will comprise quick-fire writing activities, an introduction to some contemporary poems, discussion, feedback, and a chance to talk to staff and current students. These classes are suitable for anyone:
- who is sharing and discussing poetry with a group of strangers for the first time
- who has just started to write or is returning to writing after a long absence
- who is interested in meeting up with new writers and poets in a casual, supportive environment
If you’re starting out, working with a writing group can be a nerve-racking experience. Write Aheads are the ideal way to work through your wobbly first forays into poetry, leaving you feeling confident enough to explore your creative writing further. Refreshments included.
