The School of Life invites you to a warm and slightly playful evening of letter writing, not of the formal or dutiful kind, but of the heartfelt, revelatory sort. Together, in the company of fellow thoughtful participants, we’ll write love letters. These may be to a past partner, a current crush, a long-lost friend, a beloved family member or to your own younger (or future) self.
Guided by one of our faculty, we’ll consider some gentle prompts, hear evocative examples, and reflect on the peculiar beauty of putting tender thoughts into words, especially the ones we might never send. This isn’t about elegance or eloquence, but sincerity: about saying what we mean before it’s too late. With humour, curiosity and a spirit of openness, we’ll practise the subtle art of love lettering, not as a grand romantic gesture, but as a quietly transformative tool for understanding how we feel and what we’ve longed to say.
Come ready to write, to share a little (if you’d like), and to leave with a letter or two that might just help make sense of your past, or clarify your hopes for the future.
