Poems Unbound
Poetry in Public Parks
At Poems Unbound, our mission is to unite communities by infusing the heart of public spaces with the beauty and power of poetry. We collaborate with municipal councils to curate and install poetry in public parks as a collective celebration of life.
Our approach is rooted in inclusivity and diversity. We actively engage with residents from all walks of life, valuing their unique perspective and voices. We seek out and honour the cultural richness of the areas in which we work, including the invaluable contributions of indigenous peoples, by collecting and showcasing poems that reflect the rich tapestry of the community.
Our Organization
We adapt to the specific needs and requirements of each council, whether providing creative expertise, handling installation submissions and logistics, or undertaking project management. We stand as dedicated partners to assist councils to present their vision of Poetry in Public Parks to and for their communities.
Through our collective efforts our aim is to help foster a sense of togetherness. Poems break down boundaries. By placing them in public spaces we open the doors for individuals and communities to feel connected, through the enduring power of words, and in doing so we are helping craft more vibrant, inclusive, and united communities.
Get Involved
We invite all poets and aspiring poets to send in their submissions for inclusion in a poetry walk in your area.
