School of Poetry

I thought I should let everyone know that we haven't been successful in our bid for grant aid from The School of Poetry. Below is their confirmation……...

Hello and thank you very much for your application to the Poetry School’s micro-commission fund.

I’m sorry to inform you that we won’t be taking your application further. There were so many great ideas out there, and we would have loved to been able to support more of them, but sadly we only had the budget for five.

Please do stay in touch with the Poetry School. We’re going through a period of expansion at the moment, and will be developing our programme to include more poetry-promoting projects alongside our regular course programme. We hope to be able to offer more opportunities of the ‘Lo and Behold’ nature in the future, and to increase the number of poets we collaborate with. While we regret we couldn’t fund many more than the five projects we picked this time, it has been very interesting for us to be introduced to so many new names and ideas through the application process, so please keep us up to date with your projects and promotions and we’ll do our best to profile them on CAMPUS.

All best wishes - Julia
