Join us for a creative writing day school with options to attend poetry and prose workshops.

We will look at ways in which landscape has been represented in art and literature, and consider how the themes interact.

There will be a variety of practical writing exercises, as well as a chance to share your work and chat to other writers. Anna Chilvers and Sally Baker are both experienced teachers and published writers.

Drinks will be available. Bring your own lunch, or there’s a café nearby.

This event has been organised by Littleborough Arts Festival.

Suitable for: Ages 14+

The festival box office is located at Touchstones Rochdale. Open Tuesday - Saturday 10am - 5pm.

Rochdale Literature & Ideas Festival is aimed at celebrating and promoting the Maskew Collection of classic literature and philosophy at Rochdale Central Library, encouraging people to engage with books and ideas. Rochdale couple, Annie and Frank Maskew, met in Rochdale Library in the 1950s and shared a passion for reading and thinking. They left a sum of money to be used on resources and events related to literature and philosophy to ensure classic works are available for future generations.

Entry fee: Book in advance - £11.37
