A Very Victorian Writing Tour
Experience the Best of Victoria with a Literary Local Guide!
Including:
-3 - 4 writing prompts inspired by the history, nature & architecture of Victoria
-Writing tips presented by Giller-Prize shortlist author & writing instructor Claire Mulligan
-An opportunity to slow down & reflect
Don’t just walk on by! Take the opportunity to connect to the places and people unique to Victoria using writing tools taught during the tour. Suitable whether you haven’t written a word or have written thousands.
The tour starts at Thunderbird Park and ends near Bastion Square. 3 or 4 locations will be visited - at each stop you can expect to learn something about the place and the people who inhabited it, be taught a writing technique, and given time to reflect, write and share. Expect 2 - 2.5 hrs, about 1km total at a relaxed walking pace.
Destination Greater Victoria is honoured to be based on the traditional territory of the Lekwungen-speaking peoples of the Songhees Nation and Xwsepsum Nation, whose historical relationships with the land continue to this day.
