We are doing it again!

We are holding another poetry workshop. Only this time, we are letting the sounds of the wind, the colours of spring and gentle touch of the sun guide our writing.

Join us as we gather under a shaded tree to talk about the process of extracting a poem from within us, how nature can help us tap into our creativity, and how to develop a regular poetry writing practice.

We will also be exploring how those interested can start to share their poetry with the world.

When: Nov 7th
Where:Bicentennial park
Time: 10.30-2pm

Bring a packed lunch, water, hat and sun screen.

Writing materials and a sweet treat to be provided.

Link to tickets in the bio.

Look forward to seeing you.

The ACWF, in partnership with @ayicentresydney is hosting a poetry writing workshop.

What does “home” sound like? What specific scent brings you right back to a moment of comfort, and what colors paint the backdrop of your memories?

Join us for Home & Heart, a reflective and welcoming poetry workshop where we will explore the sensory landscape of what “home” means to each of us.

Whether home is a physical place, a person, a feeling, or a shifting memory, this workshop will give you the space to put those experiences into words.

What to Expect

* Sensory Exploration: Guided writing prompts focused on the sounds, scents, and colors that define our personal spaces.

* Creative Community: A safe, supportive, and inspiring environment to share ideas and write alongside fellow poetry lovers

* no prior writing experience needed! 
What to Bring:

To help inspire our writing, we invite participants to bring a small item unique to your home (something that holds personal meaning, a texture you love, or a scent that grounds you). Can’t bring an object? No problem at all—feel free to bring a photograph on your phone instead!

Event Details

* Date: Saturday, 12th September 2026
* Time: 1.00-330pm
* Location: 8 Parramatta Road Victoria

* All workshop materials and a light lunch will be provided.

Spaces are limited to keep the group intimate, so please secure your ticket early. We can’t wait to write with you!

We could not have dreamed of a better way to spend a Saturday afternoon.

The poets came and delivered poignant messages, a dance troupe entertained and some of us joined them on the floor, and after a quick poetry workshop prompt, the floor was open to the audience, and again, we got to travel to places where young minds have been residing.

Later in the evening, the after party took off, and we were entertained through music and dance.

The delicious food by @jamaican_delight kept us fuelled throughout the evening.

These short reel does not capture the magic, for it was one of those ‘you had to be there’ moments.

Always in awe of what @ayicentresydney is dreaming up for our youth.

To everyone who made this event possible, to our scheduled performers, those who jumped on to the open mic and our captive audience, we say, asante sana.
