Poetry Month in the News
'Australia’s poetic landscape is experiencing a vibrant renaissance, and at the heart of this cultural awakening stands Red Room Poetry, the nation’s leading platform for commissioning poets.'
From radio interviews with #30in30 commissioned poets Jazz Money and L-FRESH THE LION, to featured stories in The Sydney Morning Herald, SBS's NITV Radio, and ArtsHub, as well as book reviews of Red Room Poetry’s latest Anthology, A Line In the Sand, there's been a lot of talk about Poetry Month this year!
In a book review for Red Room's anthology A Line In The Sand, Thuy On says, 'A Line in the Sand is a veritable who’s who compendium of Australian poets who have been nurtured by this organisation, and a celebratory showcase of their wares.'
