Broadsheets for ‘young’ poets

The Broadsheets offer an unrivalled forum for young poets. The inspiration for these came from Hayden Murphy’s famous Broadsheet, costing 10p, which he produced with vigour and regularity in Dublin in the seventies.The first two Broadsheets were colour posters but now the Broadsheets are online in a scroll-like form. Click here for the online broadsheets.

Along with the Broadsheet, Broadsheet poets are chosen to appear in Agenda, with a spread of up to six poems, for greater recognition.

Important: Notes for Broadsheet poets appear towards the end of every issue of Agenda and online. (Established by Patrica McCarthy, the Editor)
