Discover the power of words and unleash your creativity in this poetry workshop where you are invited to consider and write about your own interpretation of ‘the art of place’.

Led by Lucy Norton, this workshop for kids will explore the nature, uses and practice of poetry through poetic language, forms and conventions.

‘The art of place’ can take on different meanings and can be expressed through many different forms to represent or depict a location. In the exhibition Coomaditchie: The Art of Place, currently at the Museum of Sydney, the artworks on display reflect life in and around the settlement of Coomaditchie in the Illawarra region and the significance of Dharawal Country.
