Writers SA is bringing poetry to the Limestone Coast this month, with in-person and online workshops and regional Fringe performances.
The Limestone Coast program in March features performances of Caroline Reid’s SIARAD for Fringe Mount Gambier, an open mic event for Naracoorte Fringe with guest poet Emelia Haskey, three in-person workshops kicking off with Gloria Demillo (pictured) and a special online workshop with Rory Green for World Poetry Day on March 21.
“We are so excited to be bringing a whole month of poetry to the Limestone Coast,” Writers SA Statewide Regional Programming Manager Alysha Herrmann said.
“Poetry is one of the oldest literary traditions, with oral storytelling and written poetry found in cultures across the globe.
“New and emerging poets continue to reimagine the form to delight, provoke and entertain and our workshops and events in the Limestone Coast this March have something for anyone curious about what poetry looks like in the 21st century.”
A range of workshops will be held in Mount Gambier and Naracoorte, with places subsidised for young people under 30. All writers aged 15 and above are welcome to attend.
