Alex Wharton Poetry Workshop 8-14 years

We're delighted to have Children's Laureate Wales, Alex Wharton, an award-winning writer, poet, performer and singer song writer, attending this year's Haverfordwest Children's Festival.

"My duty is this...

To encourage reading for pleasure – reading develops the brain and imagination. It builds our vocabulary and our understanding of the world. To encourage writing - Writing helps us explore our own imagination – it’s a fantastic method of self-expression. Creativity is all around us, it’s in the way we choose to live our lives, and I’m a person who thrives on learning new things. I’m a lifelong learner – how fun is that!  I hope somewhere, somehow, my work can inspire, entertain, challenge, comfort and empower you."

Join Alex for an inspiring and empowering poetry workshop. 

If you'd like a signed copy of Alex's latest book, "Doughnuts, Thieves And Chimpanzees" please email info@childrensfestival.cymru and we'll order a copy for you to buy at the workshop (£6.99.)  

Ages 8-14 years. 

This is a drop-and-go. Please return to collect your child at the end of the session. 

This workshop is subsidised with funding from Arts Council of Wales.
