Teens between the ages of 12 to 17 are invited to Palazzo Falson Historic House Museum for a poetry workshop on March 23 from 10.30am to noon.

After exploring the museum and viewing Olof Gollcher’s poetry books, participants will have the opportunity to take part in a hands-on activity, where they will be guided to write their own poems in a personalised journal they decorate themselves.

Participants will discover what the British Romantic poet Lord Byron had to say about Malta and will also get the chance to delve into the works of 19th-century poet Felicia Hemans, a remarkable lady whose works had been admired by Sir Walter Scott and William Wordsworth.

Pre-booking is essential. Bookings can be place by e-mail via bookings@palazzofalson.com. Ticket price is €20 per participant and €18 for members of Palazzo Falson. Price includes all materials for the workshop.

Tickets are non-refundable. Check out the event’s Facebook page for more details.

Palazzo Falson Historic House Museum is managed by Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti, a non-profit heritage foundation aiming to spread awareness about our heritage through museums, publications, exhibitions and events.
