🎟 Pay What You Can
Join Kate Malyon @katemalyon & Dr Sé M. Nomyo @sea_mali for a two-hour writing workshop.
This workshop follows the same format as the August session. Returning participants can explore how prompts shift across seasons, and newcomers are very welcome too!
We’ll meet at Flints by Newgate Gap, where we’ll begin by watching Return to Water, a short film co-created by Sé and Kate. From there, we’ll move through a series of writing prompts designed to help you tune into yourself and your surroundings — with an element of sea swimming woven in.
OPEN TO ALL. You don’t have to have to be a writer or have ever written before. Equally, if you’re a writer who might get something out of the experience, you’re very welcome.
What to bring: your swimming kit, something warm to change into afterwards [note the more autumnal temperatures], and your preferred writing tools (notebook, pen, laptop — whatever works for you).
We’ll finish the session with some optional sharing and a drink at the Flints kiosk. @flintskiosk
ACCESS:
Access to the space is via the Newgate Gap slope - which is off of Sweyn Road and Percy Road. The project space is approx 68 metres down the slope. The slope is a smooth, tarmac surface with a fairly steep gradient. At the entrance, there is a small lip in the door - there is a ramp available, if needed.
There is no accessible toilet on the premises.
7 steps from workshop space to toilet.
