Join us online for a special free poetry workshop celebrating 60 years of Modern Poetry in Translation, presented by The Poetry Society in collaboration with MPT. In this unique workshop, we will delve into MPT’s extensive archives, exploring decades of poetic voices from across the globe. Whether you’re an established poet or new to writing, this workshop offers a rare opportunity to engage with a treasure trove of translated works, drawing inspiration from a wealth of styles, themes, and languages.

Guided by MPT managing editor Sarah Hesketh, you’ll explore how translation shapes our understanding of poetry and how we can weave those influences into our own writing. You’ll leave with new creative insights, fresh ideas, and poems that have been sparked by the rich, diverse voices housed in the MPT archive.
