Do you love the written word and have a unique way of describing the world around you? Or is poetry something you’ve always
wanted to try?

In the lead up to Mental Health Week, we are inviting all Tasmanians who experience, or have experienced, mental health issues
to enter the Poetry for the Soul competition and share your work.

Entries will be judged based on the theme, ‘Connection to self: Poetry for the soul is the connection of emotions to the life and all
our experiences’.

Submissions open now.
Submit online to: [email protected]
Submit via post or in person to: 136 Davey Street, Hobart

Competition closes 4pm, Friday 29 September, 2023.

Entrants will be invited to read their work at a poetry reading during Mental Health Week on 9 October at Hadley’s Hotel.
