The Self Expression Sessions is a free series of engaging spoken word poetry workshops, open to anyone interested in writing regardless of previous experience providing a safe space to improve writing and performance skills.

The workshops will be on the following Saturdays between October and December:

Saturday 23rd October 11am-1pm

Saturday 13th November 2pm-4pm

Saturday 27th November 2pm-4:30pm

Saturday 11th December 2pm-4:30pm

Each session covers a different topic with a view to broadening your writing skills and offering the chance to share and perform your work. Themes we'll be covering include lyricism, wordplay and flow, music and rhyme schemes, language devices, forms and afters, ways to combat writer's block and storytelling.

We encourage you to be open and let your creativity flow however it's up to you how much, if at all, you'd like to share. Coming in to create is the main purpose of these workshops and as far as we're concerned, if you go home with the start of or completion of a new piece that you wrote, that's a huge win!

All workshops are free and you can come to as little or as many as you want across the four Saturdays however spaces are limited so book now to avoid disappointment!
