SUMMARY:Rewrite\, Reimagine: A Poetry Editing Session
DESCRIPTION:A poetry editing session for LGBTQ+ writers\, led by writer\, poet and performer Bella Cox.\n\n\nRewrite\, Reimagine: A Poetry Editing Session is a one-off\, in-person workshop for LGBTQ+ writers hosted at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre in London.  \nLed by poet and educator Bella Cox\, following the success of her online 6-week course Unmuted\, this in-person creative session focuses on editing and rewriting poetry in a supportive\, affirming space. \n Bring a poem or two you’d like to rework\, or just an idea you’d like to write about and edit in the session. Expect inspiring freewriting exercises\, hands-on editing techniques\, and a chance to breathe new life into old work.  \nWhether you’re an emerging queer poet or simply someone passionate about writing and self-expression\, come join us to celebrate creativity\, community\, and craft. \nThis session is open to all LGBTQ+ people who write and want to explore their editing abilities.  \nAbout the facilitator \nAn internationally acclaimed artist\, Bella Cox (she/her) is a British-Spanish writer\, poet\, and performer whose poetry centres around relationships and how personal identity influences politics and ways of loving one another.  \nWhile her proudly queer\, feminist\, relationship-fuelled work navigates her own identity\, her multicultural upbringing has influenced work that explores the notions of belonging\, home\, and self-empowerment. Her art reclaims the body as the first home and embraces sensitivities and neurodivergence as tools for self-liberation. \nShe is a three-time Barbican Young Poets alumna\, a twice-nominated Young People’s Laureate for London\, and was a member of multiple London poetry collectives throughout 2018 while being a founding member of two regularly sold out London open mic nights. \nIn her work as a writing workshop facilitator\, Bella strives to create safe to ‘fail’ spaces that prioritise inclusivity and empower young people to creatively express themselves through poetry.  \nIn her 6+ years of experience delivering both in person and online workshops to people ages five to 65 she has worked with various institutions including Eastside Education\, Goldsmiths University\, Get Further Education\, Canning Town community centre\, and First Story among many others. \n Find her at BellaCox.com or @bellaCoxPoet on Instagram  \nAccessibility \nThe Centre’s accessibility statement is here. \nCovid safety at the London LGBTQ+ Community Centre \nTo keep our community safe\, we ask that all visitors do not visit the centre if they are feeling any Covid-19 symptoms including headache\, fever\, sore throat\, consistent cough and chills. \nYou can wear a mask if you feel more comfortable.
