Council inviting lockdown-inspired creative writing

The Island's Arts Council is inviting people to submit pieces of creative writing - inspired by lockdown.

A poem or piece of creative writing of up to 250 words can be submitted with selected pieces receiving £100 as thanks. 

Each piece must follow the theme of four prompts and will be shared from 1st February for the 4 weeks of the month.  

Each week there will be a different theme:

Week 1: Home

Week 2: Ritual

Week 3: Community

Week 4: Gratitude

The project aims to showcase pieces of creative writing from all ages and abilities in order to inspire and spread some positivity during this time.
