Event Description

Start your day with a burst of creativity!

Workshop details: This event is free, with limited places. If the event is sold out, please join the waiting list, as spots may become available! Author Gemma Seltzer will guide you through a range of creative exercises to prompt new poems, stories and life writing. This workshop marks The Women's Library's 100th year and celebrates the theme of Quiet Power. In the morning light, we'll step into the archive, uncovering inspiration in letters, pamphlets, publications, overlooked objects, and the traces of women's lives preserved in marginalia and diaries. Together, we'll reflect on campaign materials and personal writings that reveal strength in subtlety, resilience in detail, and the enduring presence of women's voices. The workshop will also include a guided tour of The Women's Library, offering a rare and extraordinary setting to write. Write & Shine workshops take place in the early morning light - the best time to think, dream and imagine! You won't be expected to share your writing, which offers great freedom and encourages all kinds of fascinating ideas to emerge. Find out more about Write & Shine at: write-and-shine.com.
