The Drawing Room Project - A Poetry Workshop

The fourth retreat of the Drawing Room Project, a poetry workshop, is scheduled for November 10-13, 2017 in Good Hope, Trelawny, Jamaica. Olive Senior will facilitate the workshop.

Based on their experiences at the Calabash Festival, poets Millicent Graham and Joni Jackson co-founded the Drawing Room Project and the first retreat was held in 2008.

Poets of the Caribbean is 7 Years Old!

Poets of the Caribbean is celebrating 7 years! Thanks to all the readers who have subscribed, commented, and told me about Caribbean poets I had not heard of. Thanks so much for your continued readership and engagement.

To mark the anniversary, I would like to give away a copy of Ishion Hutchinson's latest collection, House of Lords and Commons: Poems, to the first person who posts a comment.
