27th July will see us involved with the Signal Festival’s Takeover Day at Old Town Gardens, 11am - 4pm.
Come along to see our stall, get some face paint and glitter tattoos, and learn more about what we do.

2pm - 4pm we will have a Textiles workshop, being led by our Practitioner, Emily.
Bring a piece of clothing, and we will show you how to upcycle this with some embroidery and fabric paint.

26th July, we will be running two 45-minute Poetry Workshops at Central Library, 2pm - 4pm.
We will have a creative space for writers to explore language, rhythm, and expression - some key elements for poetry. Through exercises and discussions, participants develop their unique voices while engaging with different poetic forms and themes. Whether you're new to poetry, or have explored creative writing with a poetry slam, our workshop will be a space to explore freely.
Have the opportunity to then share what you create at our Library Courtyard Open Mic!

2nd August, we’ll have a World-Building Workshop at Wharf Green 2pm-4pm for ages 8-14yrs.

Are you interested in games such as Dungeons & Dragons, Warhammer, or Minecraft? Or are you an avid writer, that would like to explore how to build a world for scripts and drama pieces? This session will help you to understand the art of creating an imaginary world through landscapes, languages, eco-systems, and characters that live there. It's a session based around creativity and building immersive details around a world of your choice!
