Advert for writing poems

Overview

Writing poetry, playing with words, is a great way to take some time out and find some clarity.

With the emphasis on fun and experimentation, we will use a variety of exercises and writing techniques to start our own pieces. If you’ve never written a poem before, that’s fine! And you won’t have to share anything aloud unless you want to.

 

Details

Places are open to the whole Wolfson community, and are bookable through this Microsoft form on a first-come-first-served basis.

Please email our student recruitment officer, Caroline Banerjee, on sro@wolfson.cam.ac.uk, with any questions.

 

Access

This event will take place in the Gatsby Room on the first floor of the Chancellor's Centre. It has step-free access with a lift and there is an accessible toilet located each floor of the building.
