This playful, welcoming workshop invites you to explore self-empowerment through the art of blackout poetry. Black Out Poetry, or erasure poetry, involves selectively covering words from a printed page to make a new composition. Using existing texts, you’ll uncover words and phrases that resonate with you, transforming ordinary pages into something personal and meaningful. In this workshop, we will examine ourselves and our views of the world, exploring how perspective and experience shape how we bring ourselves to the table. No writing experience needed—just curiosity. Along the way, you’ll slow down, tap into your inner voice, and connect with like-minded people in a relaxed, creative space where discovery and expression come first. Get ready to experiment, play, meet others and have fun. ::::Agenda::::- 18:00 Arrival &amp; Welcome- 18:30 Start of session - 20:00 Closing followed with networking  ::: Location:::Kamilou, Rue Joseph II 36, 1000 Bruxelles (Upstairs)  Our guest facilitator is Maddie Corley, a respected creative instructor with several years of experience as a songwriter, writer, educator, and artist, working directly as both teacher and learner.
