Overview
Before you start thinking that poetry is a long obsolete art form better suited for Shakespearian era romantics, do yourself a favour and check out the Judith Wright Centre this weekend. Trust us, you might be surprised.
The Queensland Poetry Festival is on for its 16th year in a row. This makes it one of the longest running festivals in town, so obviously there is something here that captures the imagination.
The QPF is hailed as Australia’s premier festival for poetic endeavour, and I’m inclined to agree, with over 40 artists (including Holly Throsby, pictured) from all parts of the globe on hand to inspire and ignite your passion for poetry.
Check out the QPF website for timetables and more information.
