The Ireland Chair of Poetry is delighted to open the call for submissions to the 2023 Ireland Chair of Poetry Travel Award.
The Travel Award was established in order to assist poets in their creative development and specifically to help realise a project requiring travel within or outside Ireland and offers an award of £2,000 in order to do this.
The Trust hopes that this award will offer a poet an opportunity to step outside his or her everyday space and work on a project that will benefit their professional development.
Application guidelines and award criteria are available here.
Applications will be accepted via email, and within the appropriate application form only. To access the application form please click here.
EDIT: please note the deadline for submission of applications to the 2023 Travel Award has been extended until 5.00pm Friday 7th of April 2023.
All submissions and queries can be addressed via email to admin@poetryireland.ie
