Join National Poetry Day Ambassador Simon Mole for a workshop that will enchant young word wizards and more reluctant writers alike. Simon uses fun (and quite silly) games to build skills and confidence before the group are guided through a step-by-step process to write their very own poetry spells – the outcomes will be both heartfelt and hilarious, as the young people pen magic words to bring about the change they want in the world!
This event is part of Inua Ellams’ 2024 Residency with Arvon. You can view all of Inua’s programmed courses here.
