About this Event
This poetry workshop will examine the spirituality of walking, our deep connections with place and the practice of writing to deepen personal and poetic engagement with the natural world. For his first session, entitled ‘Walking & Writing’, Richard will show and discuss poems written while walking in The Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and on the Pennine Way. Using these poems as models, you will then explore the spirituality of walking in your own work.
A great deal of Richard's work is written in situ rather than en route and is concerned with capturing a sense of place. For his second session, entitled ‘A Sense of Place’, Richard will show and discuss his poems written while staying in The Lake District and Cornwall. Using these poems as models, you will then explore how to capture a sense of place in your own work.
The aim of this workshop is for you to leave feeling inspired and encouraged to express more fully your own spirituality while walking or being in a landscape.
No previous knowledge or experience necessary.
