Dear Supporters of Poetry in McGregor,

It gives me great pleasure to share with you the fabulous news that we are now accepting entries for our annual Poetry Competition.

Thanks to the generous sponsporship of Leila Witkin, one of our dedicated patrons,  published and unpublished poets can once again participate in our exciting competition. Our theme this year is Love in the time of Covid.

Visit our website www.poetryinmcgregor.co.za for more information and Terms and Conditions.

Please keep our Poetry Festival initiative alive and flourishing by telling your friends and fellow poets to creatively use this time to write a challenging, confrontational, passionate, uplifting, inspiring, contemplative, humorous or ‘as you like it’ poem about your Lockdown experience.

Winners will be announced later in the year at the launch of our annual Anthology. Date to be announced.

We look very forward to receiving your submissions.

Billy Kennedy

Chairman of the Poetry in McGregor Festival.
