Writing the Self with Dorothy Lehane

  • Location Maidstone
  • Price from £12.00

Highlights

Join us for an immersive poetry workshop designed to explore the landscapes of personal identity and expression. In this session, we'll delve into the art of ‘writing the self’, encouraging participants to uncover and articulate their inner experiences through the powerful medium of poetry. Whether you're a seasoned poet or new to the craft, this workshop offers a supportive environment to learn, create, and share. Through a series of guided exercises and discussions, you'll discover how to craft poems that resonate with authenticity and emotional depth. Come ready to write, reflect, and connect with others on a journey of self-expression. 

And if you’re feeling confident following the session, there is a monthly poetry open-mic night the Thursday following this workshop (10th October). Take the opportunity to share your work (or just listen to others) and feel inspired and emboldened along with other poetry fans. It is held at Craft Brewed, 9 Market Buildings, Maidstone, ME14 1HP.
