"A time to sow"

Of this workshop, Joy says: "In this workshop, we will look at how to generate ideas from small beginnings. Inspiration is all around us but sometimes we can't see the wood for the trees. We will focus on the small things in our homes, gardens and in the natural world and see if that leads us down a path we weren't expecting." (Includes: Creative Writing Workshop with a former Cheshire Poet Laureate, Park Entry and Garden Entry)
