Join F. Zeeshan Choudhury for Writing in Nature - a 5 week series of free writing workshops in Victoria Park.
Each session will begin with a writing game to get warmed up, followed by a short, nature-themed reading from a diverse selection of writers - a new piece each time! Then, you will receive a prompt to do some writing yourself.
All ability levels are welcome and will get something from the space.
A great way to get your creativity flowing this summer and connect with others creatively!
This session is part of St Margaret's House Explore Outdoors programme, an annual series of free outdoor arts and wellbeing activities for adults in Victoria Park, to support the health and wellbeing of Tower Hamlets residents.
