In person children's workshop.
A workshop for little readers who might dream of writing their own books.
Briony May Smith and Sara O'Leary, illustrator and writer respectively of The Little Books of the Little Brontës, will talk about how the Brontës made miniature books as children, give a reading and drawing demonstration, discuss the creation of their book, and provide materials and guidance for children to create their own little books – just like the Brontës!
This event is part of our 2024 Brontë Festival of Women's Writing. Find out more about the festival here.
Date: Saturday 21 September, 10am - 11am
Tickets: £7 (one ticket per child and one free accompanying adult)
