Lost in the Foxglove: Regular Poetry Club is built on a foundation of community development and creative expansion. It is a space for anyone of any background to participate, experiment, and write in an interactive, low-pressure environment. LITF is a FLINTA-led & focused fortnightly poetry workshop series (allies welcome).
Basic outline: group arrival, tea & biscuits, go through the topic/area of focus that week and accompanying micro-lesson, get to writing, share & make connections with fellow participants.
The main goals of this series are to break down insecurity, embrace imperfection, and develop your own creative practise along the way. The classes can be a one-off or a chance to build via previous attendance. Think new pathways, community, growth, queer, and pure fun.
What does Lost in the Foxglove mean? Foxglove flowers represent the ethereal, double meanings, pride, and creativity. We want to let ourselves explore the potential of ‘what if’ and create as a new pathway develops rather than focusing on where we will end up.
