About Summit Festival: Petro-Politics with Yvonne Reddick
Part of the Summit Festival, join some of the UK’s most celebrated poets, writers, and ecological thinkers for two days of transformative discussions, workshops, and performances.
Join author Yvonne Reddick for a generative and informed writing workshop, centred on the creation of petro-poetry. Consider the way oil intrinsically shapes and informs modern life, and what we can do to find climate-positive forms of energy.
Learn how to write about the power and perils of petroleum, and equip yourself with knowledge about the substance that fuels our society.
