Using lines or elements of poetry and prose as prompts, as well as real life objects including baking utensils and found objects as inspiration, participants will be guided  through writing exercises in an exploration of memories of home and the objects which evoke them, looking at meaning and the extraordinary in the everyday domestic. Participants can work on poetry or prose, or explore both.
