Poetic Mapping
charting landscapes of memory, an online workshop
We’ve got a few spots left on next week’s workshop, Poetic Mapping, online 6pm - 8.30pm, Tuesday 21st April.
Join JLM Morton for this immersive online workshop exploring how poetry can chart the landscapes of memory, emotion, and environment.
Blending creative cartography with lyrical writing, participants will create personal or collective ‘maps’ – of neighbourhoods, childhood places, imagined futures, or inner worlds – using poetry as the compass.
Inspired by work from poets such as Bhanu Kapil, Kei Miller and Natalie Diaz, and drawing on sensory prompts, spatial memory, and visual tools, this workshop invites participants to think about place not just as location, but as experience that is layered and shifting.
This workshop is a rerun of a sold out workshop we did for the Poetry Society in January 2026. Get it while you can!
Will this be recorded. I’m going to be on the road at the time of the workshop. I really love the sound of it. 🙏
