SUMMARY:Poems for Penzance
DESCRIPTION:A Gardeners’ House x Sustainable Penzance workshop \nWhat do you love about Penzance? What would you change? What are you excited about\, worried about or hopeful for? \nPoems for Penzance is a creative\, multi-generational project inviting people to explore their relationship with Penzance through words\, drawing and making. In this one-off creative workshop at Gardeners’ House\, we’ll explore different ways of writing about place\, using Penzance as our inspiration. We’ll think about the town as it is now\, what it means to us\, and what we hope for its future. \nWe’ll start by introducing Sustainable Penzance and Gardeners’ House\, and thinking about the Living Archive and the stories\, ideas and creative work that it holds. We’ll then explore poetry in a broad sense\, looking at different kinds of poems\, illustrated books and creative work for inspiration. Through playful word games\, prompts and conversation\, we’ll begin creating our own short pieces of writing about Penzance. \nYou might find yourself thinking about: \n\nIf you could change one thing about Penzance\, what would it be?\nWhat makes you excited about the future of the town?\nWhat are you concerned about?\nWhat places\, people or landmarks are important to you?\nWhat words rhyme with the names of places around Penzance?\nWhat do you hope Penzance will be like in the future?\n\nThere are no rules about what a poem has to be — it could be a few lines\, a list of words\, a drawing with text\, a rhyme\, a reflection or something completely unexpected. Once you’ve created your piece\, we’ll turn it into a beautiful\, individual page using drawing\, illustration and creative making. You’ll also have the opportunity to add a pressed flower\, drawing or other small piece inspired by Penzance. \nThis workshop is open to anyone who is curious about Penzance\, words\, creativity and place. You don’t need to be a writer or an artist\, and you don’t need any previous experience with poetry. Just bring your ideas and your thoughts about Penzance. Come along\, have a play with words\, and help us create Poems for Penzance. \nBook your tickets via the Eventbrite link below. \nBecoming part of the Living Archive\nThe finished work will become part of Poems for Penzance\, a growing collection of creative responses to the town. The project takes inspiration from books and poetry already held in the living archive at Gardeners’ House\, bringing together historic and contemporary voices to create a snapshot of Penzance today. The hope is to create something that captures the feelings\, ideas and hopes people have for the town\, and leaves something behind for future generations to discover in the growing archive at the Gardeners’ House

SUMMARY:Rebel Botany x Flowers of the Field
DESCRIPTION:A Gardeners’ House x Sustainable Penzance workshop \nJoin Sustainable Penzance for Rebel Botany\, a slow\, curious wander through the back streets of Penzance\, where cracks in the concrete and forgotten corners become sites of quiet discovery. Armed with chalk and a shared sense of wonder\, we’ll mark the wild plants and resilient weeds that thrive in the margins\, highlighting the beauty of what’s so often ignored. \nGuided by Flowers of the Field by C. A. Johns\, a treasured text from the Gardeners’ House archive\, we’ll learn to identify the plants we encounter\, connecting past knowledge with present-day streets. This is part walking tour\, part collective mapping\, part gentle act of rebellion. \nExpect to look closer\, move slower\, and leave with a new appreciation for the unnoticed ecosystems of the everyday. \nBook this session through the Eventbrite link below.

SUMMARY:Poems for Penzance
DESCRIPTION:A Gardeners’ House x Sustainable Penzance workshop \nWhat do you love about Penzance? What would you change? What are you excited about\, worried about or hopeful for? \nPoems for Penzance is a creative\, multi-generational project inviting people to explore their relationship with Penzance through words\, drawing and making. In this one-off creative workshop at Gardeners’ House\, we’ll explore different ways of writing about place\, using Penzance as our inspiration. We’ll think about the town as it is now\, what it means to us\, and what we hope for its future. \nWe’ll start by introducing Sustainable Penzance and Gardeners’ House\, and thinking about the Living Archive and the stories\, ideas and creative work that it holds. We’ll then explore poetry in a broad sense\, looking at different kinds of poems\, illustrated books and creative work for inspiration. Through playful word games\, prompts and conversation\, we’ll begin creating our own short pieces of writing about Penzance. \nYou might find yourself thinking about: \n\nIf you could change one thing about Penzance\, what would it be?\nWhat makes you excited about the future of the town?\nWhat are you concerned about?\nWhat places\, people or landmarks are important to you?\nWhat words rhyme with the names of places around Penzance?\nWhat do you hope Penzance will be like in the future?\n\nThere are no rules about what a poem has to be — it could be a few lines\, a list of words\, a drawing with text\, a rhyme\, a reflection or something completely unexpected. Once you’ve created your piece\, we’ll turn it into a beautiful\, individual page using drawing\, illustration and creative making. You’ll also have the opportunity to add a pressed flower\, drawing or other small piece inspired by Penzance. \nThis workshop is open to anyone who is curious about Penzance\, words\, creativity and place. You don’t need to be a writer or an artist\, and you don’t need any previous experience with poetry. Just bring your ideas and your thoughts about Penzance. Come along\, have a play with words\, and help us create Poems for Penzance. \nBookings will open for this event soon. Tickets are not currently on sale. \nBecoming part of the Living Archive\nThe finished work will become part of Poems for Penzance\, a growing collection of creative responses to the town. The project takes inspiration from books and poetry already held in the living archive at Gardeners’ House\, bringing together historic and contemporary voices to create a snapshot of Penzance today. The hope is to create something that captures the feelings\, ideas and hopes people have for the town\, and leaves something behind for future generations to discover in the growing archive at the Gardeners’ House
