Capturing the Moment – describing memories with poetry and spoken word

In this workshop participants are requested to bring along valued objects like old family photographs to construct poems and narratives based on them. Participants will be able to create beautiful and powerful journal/scrapbook entries that will capture their thoughts, feelings and memories using poetry techniques. They will also get a chance to workshop these new pieces using written, performance and craft skills too.

This workshop is led by Keely Mills who is a poet and performer. Keely has over ten years’ experience as a workshop leader and has performed for the last 8 years across the UK and with poets such as John Cooper Clarke. Keely has a keen interest and skill in preserving memories through storytelling and poetry inspired by the image.  Her most recent show ‘You can’t be surprised by a Selfie’ played to a sell-out audience in December 2014.
