All are welcome to join in a creative writing workshop on Friday 18th April, led by poet and researcher Helena Fornells Nadal. The workshop will explore individual and collective experiences of land, place, social and natural environment through creative expression. Participants will be encouraged to write observations of the surrounding natural environment, personal or family memories associated with land and place, and thoughts about the future of their communities.
Please book below for your free ticket for Land and Language: A Creative Writing Workshop on Friday 18th April, 11am-1pm.
No previous writing experience is required – new and experienced writers are all welcome. Participants can write in Gaelic, English or Scots. Helena will invite participants to contribute parts of the creative texts they develop during the workshop to a collaborative poetry sequence she is writing as part of an interdisciplinary PhD.
This workshop is part of Helena’s PhD research project ‘Poetry and Land: A New Ecopoetics for Scotland’ at the University of Glasgow. More information about the research project will be provided to participants before the start of the workshop.
