Ekphrastic Poetry Workshop

Workshop: Thursday 19 June, 10:30am, Tickets: £15

“An ekphrastic poem is a vivid description of a scene or, more commonly, a work of art. Through the imaginative act of narrating and reflecting on the “action” of a painting or sculpture, the poet may amplify and expand its meaning.” – The Poetry Foundation

Join Heather Martin for a guided ekphrastic poetry workshop. Spend time with Roving Light, currently on display in Gallery 1, and create poetry that draws from your experience and connection to the work.

Whether you’re a seasoned writer or just starting out, this workshop is the perfect opportunity to practice new skills, connect with other writers and explore your creativity.
