OUT of Line

OUT of Line is where poetry gets loud, weird, and wonderfully unruly

❤️

Showcasing a diverse line-up of bold and boundary breaking voices from the LGBTQIA+ community, OUT of Line is the rebellious pulse of Perth Poetry Festival. Hosted by local poetess, passionate advocate, and baby bi Caitlin Kotula, OUT of Line is a celebration of voices that queer the mic and bite back.

This year’s event will be our largest yet! Held in the heart of Perth CBD at the gorgeous Art Deco jewel Lawson Flats, we invite you join us for a safe and inclusive night of community, pride, and poetic rebellion.
