Planet Poets! with Sidney Belony

Another planet has contacted Planet Earth! They are very friendly, and want to know all about what makes our planet special. But – they only understand poetry. So we need the help of the Planet Poets! 

Come along to the spoken word poetry workshop and create spoken word poems, celebrating our planet/the natural environment. We will explore what are our favourite things in nature? What do they look like/sound like? 

The workshop includes: 

– Fun, interactive word games (encouraging creativity, finding fun vocabulary for our poems) 

– Movement/performance (using movement to support poetry creation, thinking about sounds/words that describe sounds) 

– The chance to share our poems, at the end of the workshop 

This is an in-person event at the Hat Factory.

11.30am to 12.30pm in the Hat Factory Floor. Ages 6-9.
