If you can’t see why your kid should get interested in poetry, let Karl Nova, one of the UK’s leading poets who used to find poetry boring, change your mind. Through interactive exercises, Karl will show your kid how poetry can uplift and inform and guide them through writing their very own performance piece that will be featured on our microsite after the Festival!
What your kid will learn:
- How to give voice and sound to poetry. To write and perform poetry. That poetry is for everyone.
