Unleash Your Inner Mystic: A Midsummer Storytelling Journey at Chelsea Physic Garden
As the longest day passes with the wind, step into the tranquil embrace of Chelsea Physic Garden and its Victorian glasshouses for Midsummer Tales: A Creative Writing Workshop on Magic and Mystics.
From 15:00-19:00 on Sunday 29th June, immerse yourself in ancient folklore and enchanting tales, letting the garden's mystical atmosphere ignite your imagination. Listen to captivating stories of old, drawing inspiration from the whispering leaves and the secrets held within these historic walls as summer's breath surrounds you.
Guided by storyteller Helen Haxell-White, you'll explore free writing exercises, evocative prompts, and practical techniques designed to unlock your creative voice. You will channel your inner mystic, journey to forgotten times, and weave spells with your words.
Discover compelling characterisation, draw inspiration from the vibrant nature surrounding you, and play with the potent themes of folklore, nature, and magic during this powerful and ever-changing Solstice season. Transform the blank page and bring your own magical stories to life.
