Workshop description:

"Inspiration is - in a word - only the reward of daily practice." Baudelaire

During these days there will be time for writing, listening, reading, thinking, feeling and meeting. To create space to work on your own poems and texts and to talk and reflect together about inspiration, production and the resulting works.

The aim is to come up with specific suggestions for your own poems and texts and to move closer to your own works, to find a respectful approach without having to forego serious and productive criticism, so that each individual can develop their own individual poetic energy artistically.

This workshop takes place in co-operation with the "Literary Courses".

Please bring with you:

Paper and pens

Price:

€ 380,-
