Join Sean Wai Keung for this online creative writing workshop which will explore the taste, memories and place of vegetables.
About this event
In this workshop we’ll think, discuss and write about vegetables using a selection of poems as inspiration.
Sean Wai Keung is a poet whose work often uses food as a starting point for explorations of identity and migration. His first full length poetry collection, ‘sikfan glaschu’, was published by Verve Poetry Press in April 2021.
Sean’s favourite vegetable is broccoli, a lot of which is related to the memories of his family cooking and eating it together. Steph from food/play/food loves potatoes because they're so robust, versatile and a good team player.
The workshop is suitable for participants aged 16 and above. No writing or creative experience is necessary for this event.

This event is one of two as part of the Peas Please Veg Advocate Programme supported by The Food Foundation and Nourish Scotland.
