Hay Festival Scribblers Tour 2023

Hay Festival Scribblers Tour saw another successful series of workshops in Welsh universities in February 2023, thanks to Welsh Government funding.

In interactive events pupils built stories, asked questions and expressed themselves through the power of writing. Authors and compères spent time with the pupils, on and off the stage, to encourage creative conversations throughout the Tour.
