Poet in Residence at the City Library – Round 2 for 2024

We’re pleased to announce the second round for 2024 of Spoken Word SA Poet in Residence Program at the City Library, Rundle Place, Adelaide. 

The month-long residency will take place from Monday 18 November to Friday 13th December 2024.

The Poet in Residence will be given 16 hours over the month to work from a studio space provided within the library, and will additionally create at least one opportunity to present or perform their work. The Poet in Residence will be paid for their involvement. 

All ideas and applications are welcome. Poetry might be written, spoken, and/or expressed in another form. To get your brains thinking: facilities in the library can include access to internet, access to media lab (thinking audio recording?), projectors (2 projectors in one space!), pin-up and whiteboard walls (for spontaneous scribblings, or something interactive perhaps?).

The residency guidelines, selection criteria and sample application form are available here as a PDF or downloadable MS Word file.

The Spoken Word SA Poet in Residence Program is made possible through a partnership with the City of Adelaide City Library.
