Poet-Tree Workshop with Manveen Kaur Kohli

1 May @ 6:45 pm - 8:30 pm

$10.00

Celebrate trees for the WA Tree Festival with your writing in this inspirational workshop.

Our trees carry stories of centuries rooted in love, resilience, and hardship. To all you creatives, nature enthusiasts, and lovers of love, we invite you to share yours!

This 90-minute interactive workshop will consist of storytelling, writing prompts, and a range of props. It is client-centred and will be driven by you. You can write a prose about nature, a short story about trees, or a slam poem about healing – the sky’s the limit!

All you need to bring is something to write with, (which may be a device) and yourself!
