Writing the Witch

Gallery Unallocated, Friday 1 Aug 2025, 13:00  - ends at 16:00

Join poet Helen Ivory (author of Constructing a Witch, Bloodaxe 2014) as we explore this enduring archetype.


We will read a handful of writing prompt poems that explore aspects of the witch, such as the witch as healer, as earth-listener, as outsider and dangerous non-conformist.


We will listen in to our own witch-selves, channel our own writing power and maybe write a few spells.
