CREATIVE WRITING INSPIRED BY THE FIVE SENSES

A creative writing course focusing on the five senses – taste, touch, sight, sound, smell. This workshop series is ideal for those who would like to write but find they cannot get started, and offers participants the opportunity to write in an encouraging environment. Each week participants will use triggers from the Linenhall Arts Centre’s offerings to get their ideas flowing. From attending the Irish Chamber Orchestra’sThe Magic of the Movies concert in Christchurch, Castlebar (on Wednesday 18th May), and visiting Tara Moran-Woods’ concurrent exhibition in our gallery; to tasting from our coffee shop menu, and exploring the textures and smells in our building; participants will have a whole range of starting points for putting words on the page. Each week, a different sense will be explored and guidance will be provided to support your writing practice. No previous experience of writing is necessary, just a willingness to give it a go.

The series is under the guidance of Jean Tuomey, a teacher with over 20 years experience. She trained as a writing facilitator with the National Association for Poetry Therapy in the US, and has a passionate enthusiasm for creative writing. Jean has led many extremely successful writing projects for the Linenhall.
