Amina Atiq - This Poem is About Me

Join published poet, performance artist and award-winning community activist, Amina Atiq, in a children's workshop exploring identity through heritage. 

As a Yemeni-Scouse poet, Amina uses her workshop to introduce children to Arab culture through poetry. This will be a fun and creative exploration of how our culture shapes our identity, plus the children will get to learn some Arabic words. 

This workshop is an hour long and aimed at children 5-11 years old.

Tickets will be available in venue from the Ticket Desk. Due to limited space, tickets will be on a first come first served basis.
