After a sell-out event during Horizon Festival 2018, former UK slam champion and change-maker, Joelle Taylor will return to the Sunshine Coast as a part of Bunker Down, Speak Out on March 6 and 7.
Presented by The Bunker Collective and Horizon Festival, Bunker Down, Speak Out is a new quarterly event that provides a platform for local poets and writers to perform their work and an opportunity for newcomers to begin their own journey with the genre.
Direct from Adelaide Writer's Week, Joelle will perform a range of works including those from her new release collection, Songs My Enemy Taught Me.
Joelle is a powerhouse performer on stage and echoes that strength as an educator in her uniquely crafted workshops.
