The Liverpool Hope University Poetry Workshop is for all poets who desire a space in which to share work-in-progress for critical feedback, to read and discuss contemporary poetry and to reflect on ideas about poetry writing and the role of the poet in society.
The workshop will be a critical space in which to develop your poetry writing. Some experience of workshopping poetry is needed as is a commitment to deepening your knowledge and ability with poetic craft and imagination
In the longer-term the work of the group may develop into a shared publication or reading series, but this initial call is to connect with other poets looking for a space in which to develop their work.
Anyone who is attracted by this opportunity is invited to contact Dr Eleanor Rees with further details of their poetry and motivation for joining the group. The call is open to all students, PGR, academic and professional colleagues, and local poets with a connection to Liverpool Hope.
Meetings will be once per term and will be held alternately between Hope Park and the Creative Campus.
In the first instance, please contact Eleanor Rees reese@hope.ac.uk to express an interest and then a suitable time and date will be found for the first meeting in the New Year. All poets are welcome!
