Learn to create your own folktales with new online programme
Folktales is a new online engagement programme using creative writing and collecting to take you on a journey of the past, present and future.
The programme will feature a series of online video masterclasses and workshops with leading folklorists, writers and artists, helping you to produce your own piece of creative writing.
How will it work?
-- You will receive a special Making the Future pack in the post including materials to help get you started.
-- Take part in a creative writing masterclass with award winning author Jan Carson and create your own work.
-- Hear from folklorist Linda Ballard and writer Jane Talbot about the history of their crafts and be inspired to bring forward stories from your own past.
-- Join an online community through Slack to share your work and your thoughts with other participants
