Lisson to the Haiku
Lisson to the Haiku
West London Word Workshops with John Hegley.
A choice of two 2-hour workshops experimenting with the Japanese form of short poetry, the haiku, led by a teacher who knows his stuff. In a warm and relaxed environment, you’ll tap into your memories and imagination and produce pieces that
will cheer up your creative powers.
There may also be other forms of poetry.
There will probably be drawing. There will definitely be biscuits.
