Facilitated by writer Sofia Kathryn Smith and photographer and teacher Bryony Good, the workshop is loosely based on Simon Menner’s work, False Arrest which will be exhibited in the same venue as part of the programme and depicts a series of narrative staged photos from the Stasi archives that tell the story of an arrest. Participants will join as a group to create a story using a series of simple writing exercises and games, before hitting the streets to recreate the story in photographs. The photographs will then be collated and printed as a short ‘zine for the participants.  The workshop is ideal for anyone interested in storytelling and photography and is suitable for ages 6 to 16.
