Passageways [Caminos]

Red Dirt Poetry Festival will take wing on 20 August with our opening night event: Passageways [Caminos] 🪶

Our first event for the festival is Passageways [Caminos] where science meets poetry. This year, we have joined forces with Chile's International Poetry Festival (ACRUX - Festival Internacional de Poesia) to create a unique cultural exchange, connecting communities from coasts to deserts through shared dark skies and waterways.

With nine poets – six Australian and three Chilean – working with Australian Scientists to explore three core concepts, Waterways, Signways & Skyways, merging poetry with science.

Don’t miss this event held at White Gums - bus available leaving the Crowne Plaza (Lasseters) at 6pm - tick the box saying you want to be on the bus and don't be late.

Artists/Speakers: Diego Colonnello, Dr Adam Yates, Dr Tim Patston, Faumelisa Manquepillan, Jazz Money, Jihad Yassine, Juan Garrido Salgado, Julio Carrasco, Melanie Melanie Mununggurr, Rob Waters, Tisha Carter, Victoria Alondra
