Creative writing workshop in collaboration with LIFT festival

  • Nomadic Libaax
  • Nyasha Duri

The workshop I curated and led as a part of the festival was called Rhythm & Rhyme: Unlocking the Poetic Mind. This entailed a interactive, spoken word workshop centred around perspective, how to develop a poetic outlook, and unlock the potential within the mind through a variety of different exercises and focus points. The workshop centered around expression through immersion via 3 main exercises coupled along with focus points to inspire participants to look at the world through a poetic lense drawing inspiration from all around! You can find out more about the event in my review article in the link below.
