“I've been writing poetry since I was 13 yrs old. I'm now 57 and finally a published poet in language as well.... Never ever give up on your dreams.”

~ Aunty Lauren Chapman Carpenter, commissioned poet and Elder

Help us elevate the next generation of Australian Poets.

For over 20 Years, Red Room Poetry has been commissioning and creating new Australian poetry in ways that make it vibrant, relevant and accessible. Please consider making a tax deductible donation to help us to publish over 5,000 new Australian poems in 2024. We’ll make them available to all through our free digital library.

  • $100 supports the online publication of a student poem
  • $500 helps us to commission and publish a new Australian poem for our free digital library
  • $1,500 delivers a free workshop for school kids or the public
  • $15,000 delivers a 3-day Baraya Barray workshop for a First Nations community

Whether it is providing a platform for marginalised voices to shine their light and have their story told, or helping tens of thousands of students achieve climate action through POEM FOREST, poetry is a vehicle for expression, for change, for participation.

And we can’t do any of this without you.
