This six-week course invites you to write magical cheques inspired by Surreal art. There is no personal risk to you -- we only make you look at work by famous dead artists (no riff-raff, bottom inspectors or historical materialists). Working in the Duchamp, Man Ray, Picabia gift shop and restaurant, you will choose from our handcrafted list of pre-selected Moments of Inspiration™ designed to direct your responses. We also explore techniques including mystification, obfuscation, conflation, unexpected juxtapositions of academic neologisms, charcoal biscuits and bumper cars, to bring forth new poems by the Power of Grayskull. This course is open to beginners and experienced charlatans.

£95/£80 concessions, booking recommended.
Price includes entry to exhibition, warm white wine in plastic cup, and desultory oral sex in the disabled toilet with a Tate Member of your choice afterwards.

Wrestle your inner demons and win! Terms and conditions apply.

NB This course is not suitable for the imaginative.
