Sonnets? Haiku? Acrostic? Ekphrastic? Free Verse? Do the terms and formats leave you perplexed?

Pop in to this free informal workshop where festival team members and students from Liverpool Hope University will be on hand to discuss the various forms. There will be space for you to explore and write for yourself.

Whether you are an experienced poet or just someone who wants to know what it is that poets get up to, there will be something here for you. If you know of forms that we haven’t heard of, please come and share them with us.
