Tuesdays from 5 May, 6–8pm for 4 weeks
Coledale Community Hall
Storytellers and writers draw on life experiences to create fiction, memoir, documentary, poetry, plays and more. How do we decide what we want to share, and what should stay private or obscured, at least for now?
Designed for storytellers who are starting a project, or those stuck in a rut, this inspiring, germinating course will gently spark creativity, curiosity and the confidence to turn your personal stories into creative work.
Over the course of four workshops, participants will explore how their experiences can become narratives, and which mediums might best serve them for sharing these stories.
Each two-hour workshop will be led by Story Doula Belinda Lopez, an award-winning documentary maker, writer and narrative practitioner, who has long collaborated with storytellers, journalists and writers to help their works come to life.
