Join GOBS Collective founder Bridie Squires and University of Nottingham academic and poet Dr Hongwei Bao, in a series of creative writing, publishing and performance workshops. During the second workshop, you’ll take part in a fun zine-making session, where you’ll work together with your fellow workshoppers to use your poetry and art materials to cut, stick and scribble your way to a collaborative anthology master which will be taken away for printing.
Those who attend the workshops will have the opportunity to take part in Being Human Open Mic: The Notts Sound, the following week.
It’s preferable that registrants will attend all 3 workshops.
This event is part of Being Human Festival, the UK’s national festival of the humanities, taking place 7–16 November 2024. Led by the School of Advanced Study, University of London, with generous support from Research England, in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council and the British Academy.
