Dublin Book Festival – Poetry and Letterpress Workshop

Join poet Nell Regan for this engaging workshop – bring a picture of a place you love (a landscape or cityscape), a pen and a willingness to play. We’ll look at a myriad ways to approach the same thing/view, aiming for a freshness of language and perspective. Suitable for all.

Tickets for this poetry workshop here. €15 plus fees.

Followed by an optional letterpress workshop with Mary Plunkett, 2.30pm (limited capacity and separate booking required) to hand set and print a line from your poem. €30 plus fees.
