This year, we’re running two separate workshop streams in March at the Alice Springs Town Library.
They’ll run on three consecutive Saturdays from March 14, 21 and 28.
Both streams are free, but registration is essential as space is limited (10 max per stream).
These workshops were designed as a series, so please remember to sign up for all three weeks.
Emerging 9.30am – 11am
Experimental 11.30am – 1pm
Location Alice Spring Town Library
Emerging Stream
The Emerging stream explores foundational basics and introductory exercises for writing, reading and performing poetry.
Join Spandu Pillarisetty to develop and nurture the use of poetic devices, identify and practise writing within different poetic structures while engaging in a guided writing practice refining your own personal style. Spandu will guide you through learning and practising skills that can then be used to refine different areas of writing poetry and expand the ways in which we express ourselves and the way we see the world.
Experimental Stream
The Experimental stream explores developing new or existing works into performance or installation, for those who want to take it off the page into new spaces.
Join Red Dirt Poetry Festival Artistic Director Laurie May for a three-week process of developing poetry from page to presentation – whether that’s performance, installation or something else. This workshop is for poets who have been writing for a while and have some foundational basics.
