An empowering and imaginative poetry workshop.
What would you reclaim from patriarchy - and other systems of oppression - if you could? Join award-winning poet Monika Radojevic in an empowering workshop that explores power dynamics through the lens of poetry and mythology.
In a nod to the Brontë sisters' imaginary world, Glass Town, participants will be encouraged to create their own mythological character and question what they would change about the world, in a workshop that’s suitable for everyone, regardless of writing experience.
This event is part of our 2024 Brontë Festival of Women's Writing. Find out more about the festival here.
Date: Sunday 22 September, 1:30pm - 2:30pm
Tickets: £7 (under 12s free)
Location: The Old School Room, Haworth
Suggested age: 12+
