THIS EVENT HAS PASSED
Wednesday 5 June, 6:30pm-7:30pm, The Station, Silver St, Bristol, BS1 2AG
Festival of Nature 2019 includes a special series on nature writing. We’ve asked 5 different writers to join us at 4 feature events in Bristol to share their work, their upcoming projects, and to help us explore the nation’s ongoing love for nature writing. Join us!
Join us for a very special evening featuring two emerging nature writers, supported by the Forestry Commission as part of their centenary residency programme, ‘Writers in the Forest’. Tiffany Francis and Bristol-based Zakiya Mckenzie will share their developing work and join our chair for a discussion on connecting diverse audiences with trees and forests, the continued popularity of nature writing and how to build a writing career in a digital age.
