Posted: 10 September, 2019


International and critically acclaimed poets Alice McCullough and Maria McManus are co-curating an international edition of first class contemporary poetry for their on-street audio installation, Poetry Jukebox. This edition,  drawn from a world-wide call for submissions, features the work of first-class poets who also self-identify as disabled.

In 2017, Belfast International Festival launched the very first Poetry Jukebox on the island of Ireland. This year they’re back and launching a new Poetry Jukebox that integrates specific features to enhance access for people with hearing impairment and people who use wheelchairs.

Launching on 16th October 2019 and located on CS Lewis Square for the duration of the Belfast International Festival 2019,  the poems on the new jukebox will be available 24 hours a day. 

The deadline for Submissions is Monday 23rd September 2019.

Supported by Arts Council of Northern Ireland,  from National Lottery funds,  Department for Communities, Belfast City Council.
