About this event

Have you ever been interested in writing poetry but don’t know where to start? If you struggle to find the right words, why not start with Seamus Heaney’s? Blackout poetry...

..sometimes known as erasure poetry, allows you to start with an already existing poem and, through erasure, gradually narrow down the text to the words that speak to you, finding your own poem inside the text. It is a fun way to experiment with poetry and to tackle the dreaded fear of the blank page!

Readers are advised to check with the venue before relying on the details published here.
