two In-person workshops at the trinity rooms, stroud, starting January 2025
“For the past few years I’ve been sending my poems to Adam who continues to shed light on the elusive art of writing poetry and guide me in developing my practise. He has a wealth of knowledge to offer and I’m grateful for his constructive criticism, for pushing me to the core of the poem, and for his enthusiasm towards my work. ”
After the success of his first three terms of courses at the Trinity Rooms, which ran from January to March, April to June and September to November 2024, poet Adam Horovitz will be running two consecutive workshops on Tuesday and Wednesday nights from January 21st and 22nd 2025.
On these 10 week courses, participants will be invited to explore the writing of poetry, offering ways in to intermediate and advanced writers in search of fresh sources of inspiration or who are in need of a jump-start for the muse. Adam will guide students through the tangled landscape of writing poetry, and allow them time, space and permission to write freely. The courses can also help writers to get bump-started after a long hiatus, if that is needed,
The Tuesday night sessions are suitable for people returning after the course that started in April 2024, and for anyone feeling more confident in their writing. The Wednesday course will suit intermediate writers, improvers and anyone seeking a burst of fresh inspiration. Each two hour session over the ten weeks will include workshop prompts, discussion and constructive critique of writing generated on the night and of poems brought in or written as part of the previous week’s homework.
Each course costs £120 for ten weeks. There are also two concessionary places available, priced £60, on each course. There are 12 places available on each course.
A deposit will be required, with payment in full at the start of the course. Please contact Adam using the contact form at the bottom of this page if you would like to discuss booking. If you have any further questions about the courses, please feel free to ask. If you are able to donate some money to help enable someone who could not otherwise afford it to take part in the course, or if you are unable to participate in person but would be interested in an online course, please also contact Adam using the form below.
The courses take place in person at the Trinity Rooms, Field Road, Stroud, Gloucestershire, GL5 2HZ. The first 2025 course runs from Tuesday 21st January to 25th March between 7.30pm and 9.30pm. The second course runs from Wednesday 22nd January to 26th March between 5.3opm and 7.30pm.
