About this event
For centuries, creating art, and writing poetry in particular, has served as a form of healing for hurt, pain and grief. In this workshop, we’ll discuss examples of poems that tackle these difficult topics and study effective techniques for channelling our pain into poetry. Then, through a series of writing prompts, we’ll delve into our own experiences and turn them into powerful, effective poems. This workshop is for anyone who is interested in the incredible transformative power of poetry to heal our wounds.
“In Jodie Hollander’s poems, it is always monsoon season. Things come crashing down from the sky – pianos, coconuts, kangaroos, telephone receivers – into a fragile world, and the poems look up from the debris, changed.”
