Poetry as Commemoration has partnered with Poetry Ireland / Éigse Éireann to launch a programme of creative writing workshops across the island of Ireland in 2022-2023.
We are thrilled to host the Waterford workshops in Central Library Waterford on November 11th and 18th from 11am to 1pm on each date, facilitated by writer David McLoghlin.
Workshop participants will write poems using primary source materials from the Waterford City and County Archive and from the Waterford Libraries collections as creative prompts.
