MORDROS: SEA-THEMED POETRY WORKSHOP FOR PARENTS & CARERS

 
A  writing workshop aimed at parents and carers, led by Ella Walsworth-Bell and Kate Barden. Mordros is Cornish for ‘sound of the sea’- we will take the ocean as our starting point to create poems of joy and truth. 
10-1pm Friday 22 November
The Writers’ Block, The Ladder, Redruth, TR15 2QE
£5 

We will draw on joyful experiences and memories of the ocean to inspire our creativity. We will use sea sounds and images, physical sea-themed prompts, and the written word to create new poetry. We will consider different forms on the page and start the process of editing our work. These sessions are designed for parents and carers to use poetry for wellbeing; carving out time to nurture themselves as unique artistic individuals. All are welcome- whether you’re a keen wordsmith or you’ve not picked up a pen.

Mordros is brought to you by Mor Poets, an all-women shoal from Cornwall that includes Meg Chapman, Kate Barden, Abigail Ottley, Hannah Temme, Ulrike Duran, Kerry Vincent, Fi Read, Ella Walsworth-Bell, Christiana Robertson, Lauren Gauge. Mor Poets previously created two books of poetry about swimming and surfing- Morvoren and Mordardh.

Mordros is supported by FEAST funding.
