Join local poet Henry Bell for friendly, 90-minute poetry workshops exploring Glasgow, family, nature, and life writing.
These sessions are relaxed, welcoming, and open to all levels - whether you're brand new to writing poetry or coming back to it after a break. We'll read poems by writers like Morgan, Lochhead and Maccaig, try simple prompts, and share work if you want (no pressure).
Henry Bell is a poet and biographer living on the Southside. His poetry books include The Last Lochan, The Inner Circle and Still Life; and he is the author of John Maclean, Hero of red Clydeside.
Workshops will be running in on:
