As a part of A Dash of Lavender: Celebrating LGBTQ+ history month with Queer Botany, join LiLi K. Bright (they/them ) for a writing workshop.

Explore what it might be to experience your environment from a tree’s perspective, or wildflowers, or fungi.

Write into new imaginings of queer interconnectivity, woven ecologies and intuitive communing.

• Blend fact and fiction
• Sense into different ways of interacting
• Learn about how plants perceive the world
• Imagine yourself embodied in trees.
• What is it to see without eyes, smell without noses, taste without tongues?
• When you touch a tree does it touch you back?
• What drives movement in plants and how?

Ticket Information:
Tickets are £15 per person
