About this event
Portrait of a Place – Poetry Workshops about DUDLEY (7 December)
Come along to our free poetry workshops with Birmingham-based poet and playwright Nafeesa Hamid. Nafeesa will guide you through a series of fun exercises to help you discover your poetic voice through writing and editing. Workshops will be held on Zoom.
Following the workshops, you’ll have a chance to put your poetry to a short film (if you choose to), either made by you at our animation workshop or helped by our team in early 2022.
You must be aged 16 or over to attend this workshop. No previous experience is necessary.
Places are free for each session but are limited. Priority will go to residents who live in the Black Country.
The ZOOM INFO will be emailed to you directly once you have registered.
This project has been commissioned by Dudley Creates on behalf of Creative Black Country.

Please note:
The Valley of Writers team scours the web looking for the most inspiring, elevating, and accessible events that we can share as a service to our readers.
The big idea is that in a virtual arena, more people can participate. Geographical boundaries matter less.
The events we list are virtual and can be attended by writers from wherever they are in the world.
Unless otherwise stated, we are not affiliated with and do not benefit financially from the events we post. Listing is not an endorsement of the content, opinions, or products promoted by the event organizers we feature here.
Please verify all dates, times and other event details as these are subject to change and are beyond our control.
What qualifies an event as ‘lit’? Any event that we think would teach writers of fiction, memoir, and poetry useful skills, inspire them to produce great work, remind them of the power of this work we do and build stronger, mutually beneficial ties between writers and other creatives.
