Description:

This two day residential workshop is an exploration of the transformative power of nature, landscape, and a sense of place through creative writing and gentle outdoor experiences.

The opportunities for personal awareness as a result of the experiences encountered during the workshop will not be left to chance and these will be safely facilitated. The workshop is for anyone who likes to write, or has aspirations to write about their deeper connection to self and nature, and who is interested in the transformational power of nature.

Participants will be guided through a range of creative writing activities set in the natural surrounds of the town of Cromarty on the tip of the Black Isle. In addition, some of the activities in the outdoors are designed to evoke a closer connection to nature and a deeper sense of self within this context.

Cost:

Residential: £199.00 per person (B&B on Friday night, full board with evening meal on Saturday). Non-residential: £149.00 (but includes lunches, Saturday evening meal). (event)
