We often turn to poetry to illuminate the dark. Join award-winning poets Eillen Chong, Hasib Hourani, and Fiona Wright as they discuss with Red Room Poetry’s David Stavanger some of their favourite collections that let the light in, as well as reading from their latest works.

Book your place to be in the running to have one of your original poems read out on the night (by either yourself or one of the featured poets). For poem entries – please title your email “Poetry After Dark competition” and send to eventscoordinator@dymocks.com.au

Note: Refreshments are included in the ticket price.

Presented in partnership with Dymocks, as part of Poetry Month.
