What My Hometown Means To Me: Poetry Workshop

Workshop at the Usher Gallery 1.30 - 3,30 pm Saturday 21 st November Notts Poetry is working on a new project exploring how people across the East Midlands feel about the places they call home, and how those places have changed over the past decade. We want to hear what makes Lincoln and Lincolnshire special to you. The places, people, traditions, memories and everyday experiences that shape life here, both good and bad. You can respond in whatever way feels right: write a poem or short story of up to 300 words, or send us your photography or artwork. We’ll be running workshops in Nottingham, Lincoln and Northampton, bringing together voices from across the region. The project will culminate in a series of county pamphlets, alongside a wider collection capturing the best, the worst and everything in between about life in the East Midlands. Publication is planned for Spring 2027.
