Come and join us for a nature writing workshop ahead of Earth Day. We will think about the places and species we want to protect and how writing about the natural world can be a gentle or active protest. 

In this workshop you can expect to: 

• Explore different types of nature writing celebrating precious places and species. 

• Hear examples of nature writing from a variety of authors. 

• Try some creative writing exercises for yourself. 

No previous writing experience is required for this informal and friendly morning. We look forward to seeing you there!
