As the Celtic pagan celebration of Imbolc arrives in early February, heralding the coming of light, spring and new life, join poet Liz Berry for a gentle, nurturing evening workshop inspired by the turning season.
You’ll read poems of goddesses, green shoots and brightness in the dark, and take part in writing exercises designed to help you sew the seeds for new work.
Writers of all stages and genres very welcome.
