The major aim of the project is to encourage the creation and enjoyment of poetry in the Cardwell shire, through a series of innovative workshops and the creation of a community poetry wall  to be launched during the National Poetry Week.  Another goal of the project is to reinvigorate the writing community of Cardwell by giving them a focus, and inspiration to get writing groups meeting on a regular basis.  If the project is met with some enthusiasm by participants and the community it has the potential to be developed into a literary event which complements other local festivals but gives a focus to writing/across art forms. This project also encourages writers to work across genres, of photography, text and art and encourages Cardwell’s young people to express themselves this way as well.
