This November peer group we had really fantastic works/ideas shared by both Shahina Jaffer and David Gilbert.
You can watch a recording of the event below:
Shahina shared her work with artist Scott, running arts workshops for visually impaired people. Shahina and Scott are very keen to hear from artists who might like to do a guest Zoom slot, or ideas on how to fundraise for a virtual reality space. If you have any ideas please contact Shahina directly: shahinanow@gmail.com.
David shared his idea for a poetry project, Poetry for the Nervous, asking for advice on the structure and setup of his idea for a new poetry course for people with health conditions. We chatted about how to make poetry less scary for those that haven’t tried it before — and it seemed quite a few of us were up for booking on to the course already! If you were present and wanted to follow up with David you can at davidgilbert43@yahoo.co.uk. You can also grab a copy of David’s poetry book The Rare Bird Recovery Protocol.
