Have you ever wanted to write blitz poem, but just not found the one you like or understood the way individual forms are written?
Well, now's your chance to find your form. Join Rick Sanders from Verve for a workshop looking specifically at form. You will get to learn the structure, read some examples and write a form poem of your own. Rick will guide you through a process of exploring the form in all its glory and then you will have a chance to write a poem yourself.
This workshop is for novice or experienced poets, or poets with a good understanding of writing poetry who want to develop specific skills in writing form poetry. This is for adults (+16yrs) only; and only suitable for those who have experience of writing poetry.
What to Bring:
Bring your passion for words, an open heart, and a willingness to explore the world through poetry. Please bring something to write on and something to write with. All other materials will be provided.
The workshop is 2 hours in duration. Please arrive ten minutes before the session as the Hive closes at 3.30 pm and you may not be able to gain access after that.
And if you like poetry, you can return later in the day to attend the Verve Open Door, a free open mic poetry event that takes place at the Hive during the evening - you might even want to perform your poems!
