Trains: A Poetry Workshop
Trains have long since been a source of fascination and inspiration for writers and creatives. A train journey can serve as a metaphor for life’s journey or as a powerful symbol of class, adventure or transformation. In this generative workshop we will use visual images, folk stories and touchstone poems to inspire us towards the production of new work.
