Song In Your Pocket

Hope Springs… Flowers, Poetry and Song for a new season

Has your creativity and hope been in hibernation over winter?

Invite spring in with a multi-sensory workshop on flowers, poetry and song. Immerse yourself in the colour, scent, history and symbolism of your favourite blooms, while celebrating the season of rebirth with green shoots of new ideas ready to burst into flower.

In this two-hour workshop, we will guide you through exercises of contemplation, writing and floral collage to abandon cynicism and the constraints of genre, and embrace spring – and all it stands for – wholeheartedly.

You will take home your own crafted creation, to remind you of your creative commitments to yourself after the workshop. And, just as we graft apple trees to pear, we will also come together to write a group composition to pool our ideas and dreams for the future, creating a hybrid poem/song together which reflects the wild possibilities of believing in a better world.
