BOOK A POET

Rob Gunn Performing Bush poetry

Bush poetry can add a truly unique Australian flavour to any event.
Many of the poets in the club regularly perform at private events. You can see their style, some of their repertoire, and how to contact them on the ‘Book a Poet’ page. 

JOINNG WA BUSH POETS

The WA Bushpoets and Yarnspinners club welcomes new members. Being a member usually involves attending the regular ‘Musters’ and some of the other events.
Because many events are in rural towns members often spend weekends together eating, drinking and sharing the art of bush poetry and yarn spinning.

 

You don’t need to be a bush poet to join, just an appreciation and love of the art.. And perhaps over time you will be inspired to get up and have a go yourself.
