Step into our lush Conservatory and explore how writing can deepen our connection to the natural world in this workshop led by an established author. 

Whether writing is your profession, your creative outlet, or a dream you’ve held for years, this immersive series invites you to reflect on humanity’s relationship with nature and ecology. 

The session opens with a conversation and Q&A with our guest, followed by a thought-provoking prompt and quiet time to write amidst the greenery.

Guided by themes of interdependence, activism, and healing, the workshops run alongside COP25 and our Dystopia is Not the Future season. The series culminates in five new works on ecology, showcased in a literary celebration and live performance reading on 1 Feb 2026.

Join this community of writers exploring nature and climate through creativity and shared voices. Guest author to be announced soon.
