Workshops

Inky Fingers is proud to be the longest running spoken word night in Edinburgh. With years of experience under our belt, we offer our services to run professional workshops to groups and organisations throughout Scotland – and further afield! Our team of organisers includes trained performers and writers with loads of experience in facilitating workshops for everyone from school groups to masterclasses, from experienced writers looking for a boost in performance skills to first-time writers looking to get started.

A list of the workshops we currently offer is available here, but we can also develop new workshops on request. If you’re interested in hiring us to run a workshop for your group or organisation, then please get in touch! Email inkyfingersedinburgh@gmail.com telling us:

• What your organisation does
• What kind of workshop you’re looking for: Writing or performance or something else? For an hour, a day, a week? For what size group, of what level of experience?
• What budget you have
• What the dates for the suggested workshop are

Proceeds from our workshops are split between the professional facilitators and Inky Fingers itself, helping to make our events better for everyone. Inky Fingers is part of The Forest, a registered charity (SC 038234).

Unique Events for Your Organisation

Inky Fingers has been organising regular successful events for eight years, and our team has decades of experience between them. From slams to open mics to scavenger hunts to flash fiction marathons, we make amazing, exciting, vibrant events happen. We bring writing and performance alive.

We’ve collaborated with StAnza, Scotland’s Poetry Festival, to run a Friendly Slam; with the Scottish Poetry Library to organise parties and fundraisers; and coming collaborations include a Literary Scavenger Hunt for the Scottish Book Trust.
