Telling Tales: Creative Writing for Kids

A fun, free creative writing workshop for ages 6+, packed with great games, silly stories, and plenty of ways to get involved
About this Event

Love making up stories? Join us at Exeter Library for a free, fun-filled workshop packed with silly games, brilliant characters, and plenty of inspiration from Aardman's Wallace and Gromit. From trips to the moon to putting on the wrong trousers, to malevolent flightless birds...

We’ll play with words, explore description and metaphor, and create stories and poems together. Perfect for those who love creative writing and for those who aren’t so sure. No pressure, no correct spelling needed, just lots of fun ways to get involved!

When?📚 Mon 27th August, 12.30pm (around 75 mins)

Suitable for ages 6+ with accompanying adults. No need to bring anything, just your imagination! Drinks and snacks welcome. Grown-ups are encouraged to get involved as well.

Led by Chris from Spork! Poetry and Nat from Exeter Library’s Creative Writing Hub.

All happening in the Rougemont Room at Exeter Library. This is a free event but places are limited, so do book if you can.
