Word Space Poetry Workshop

Even more intimate and chilled than the usual open mic events, Word Space workshops are a cosy and more detailed dive into our poems.

This is one for anyone who wants to improve and take their poetry and writing practice to the next step - that's right, anyone : no level of writing experience necessary. The only requirement is an interest in learning and growing as a writer... and a pen.

The sessions is 50% guided, prompted writing formed from selected readings aimed at building your craft skills and 50% 'workshopping' - reading each other's poems critically, analysing and discussing technique and pushing each other creatively with suggestions, ideas and different perspectives.

Like all Word Space events, if you want to come but can't due to your financial situation send me a message and we'll sort out a reduced ticket price - no worries. If you are in work right now and doing ok, please donate generously so cheaper tickets for those that need them can keep happening - mutural arty community > capitalism

If you haven't been to Word Space Open Mic events and are wondering what this is all about and who I am:

I'm Joshua Hallam, poet and facilitator, MA in Writing Poetry at The Poetry School, host of Word Space. Word Space is a poetry community started in 2021 which includes open mics, workshops, events and loads of good vibes. If you like good words and good folk, you'll love it.
