The House of Poetry - Poetry Workshop with Kim Moore

Join poet Kim Moore for a poetry workshop on 'The House of Poetry'.During this workshop we will be exploring the different ways that we can write about the house both as a literal and a psychological space.

We will explore poems that examine the house as mythical place, as childhood memory, as the theatre of family drama or domestic routine and as a place of both wildness and safety.

This will be a practical workshop suitable for beginners and advanced writers.Kim Moores forthcoming collection The House of Broken Things will be published by Corsair in May 2026.
