An Introduction to Poetry with Jean AtkinSaturday 22 November | 12midday - 2pm | £30
Poetry can mend us, and poetry can make us hopeful.
Poetry is rapport with others. Poetry is community.
Join Shrewsbury-based poet Jean Atkin to discover how poetry is the hotwire to our senses, and the solace of our emotions. And how we don’t need always to understand it – we just need to enjoy it!
In this workshop we’ll read some poems together, and talk about what we like – and what we don’t. Then Jean will lead a gentle creative writing exercise that’s suitable for both beginners and regular writers.
Jean Atkin has worked as a poet in community and education since 2011. She is widely and internationally published and was BBC National Poetry Day Poet for Shropshire. Her latest poetry collection is ‘High Nowhere’ (IDP, 2023).
Hot drinks and snacks provided, you are welcome to bring a packed lunch if you wish.
