Migration, Memories and Identity: No Place Like Home
Sat 4 Oct 2025, 2pm
Venue: October Books
Address: 189 Portswood Road, Southampton, SO17 2NF
What does it mean to be part of a diaspora? Where is ‘home’ when generations move through continents over time?
In this poetry workshop, experienced facilitators Liz Amos and Susmita Bhattacharya will guide you to express your own experiences of land and legacy – through the themes of memory, joy, belonging and transformation.
Inspired by contemporary artists featured in the landscape exhibition Soulscapes (Dulwich Picture Gallery, 2024) and the artwork of the South African-South Asian Kutti Collective, this workshop will provide space for attendees to explore connections to political geographies and the natural world through writing poetry.
This session is aimed at BPOC people, free to participate and suitable for 18+
