PASSION FOR POETRY
Passion for Poetry is a bespoke workshop in poetry appreciation for adults or young people. Work from contemporary poets is selected and presented by Dani, connected with a particular theme. The sessions are designed for people to experience poetry in a relaxed setting, where no prior knowledge of poetry is needed, and instead, poetry is used as a jumping off point for discussion and conversation.
Sessions can be tailored to any group and are available online and in person. Dani sometimes delivers these sessions to bookclubs who may want to try poetry as a focus for a change.
