GB SUMMER ARTS FESTIVAL


a couple of poems…continued

Jude Zwanikken
With imagery drawn from the long reach of Farewell Spit
and insights as bright as the stars shining above the lighthouse there, Jude paints word pictures that linger and linger.

Emma Callaghan
Runner up in the National Poetry Slam in 2023, representing Golden Bay, Emma’s comfort-shaking performance is challenging, thought-provoking and inspiring..

Mark Raffills
Mark has crafted words like his life depended on it for a while now. A stalwart of both Nelson and GB Live Poets groups, his uncluttered and unpretentious delivery makes the most of some striking words.
