About this event
Join poet Poppy Stevens at Beccles Library and learn how to craft your own story! This is part of O Projeto Página em Branco which offers high-quality creative workshops for 10-16 year olds during the school holidays.
Workshops take place from 9.45AM to 3.30PM and include lunch, drinks and snacks! Book this workshop on Eequ.
This is a writing workshop with a difference. No previous writing experience necessary. This workshop will equip you with the skills to harness your creativity and get started. This workshop is designed to take the fear out of writing and instead celebrate imagination, creativity and storytelling.
So, what can you expect from this workshop? Some games, some writing, some crafting/making and a whole lot more. You will come away with a poem or two and a whole lot of creative prompts to continue your writing at home.
How to book
Workshops must be booked in advance. You can book online via Eequ. If your booking is made within 72 hours of the workshop, we may not be able to accommodate specific dietary requirements. Please get in touch with the library location for the workshop to discuss options.
