Contemporary Black British Poetry Workshop

This is a 2 hour online poetry workshop exploring the work of contemporary Black British poets such as Raymond Antrobus, Roger Robinson and Victoria Adulwei Bulley. We’ll take a look at the work of these poets, discuss and write in response to themes identified in their work. The workshop is open to anyone interested in becoming familiar with contemporary Black British poetry and writing poems.

Upon booking, there will be an opportunity to let us know of any accessibility needs.
