Are you a Welsh speaker? Do you write in Welsh? Seize the opportunity to have your everyday Welsh writing featured in the Ruthin International Arts Festival, where it will connect and resonate with other Welsh speakers from around the globe. Write to us by 20 May 2024 to RuthinArtsFestival@outlook.com
We invite Welsh speakers worldwide to contribute to a special exhibition at the Ruthin International Arts Festival, taking place from 28 June to 4 July 2024 in Ruthin, North Wales, UK. Under the theme "Elsewhere," we aim to bring the essence of Welshness from across the globe back to Ruthin, celebrating the language in its many forms and uses.
This call is open to everyone, from anywhere, to share their everyday Welsh writing. Whether it's professional pieces, personal reflections, or casual writings—if it connects with the theme "Elsewhere," we want to showcase it. We’re particularly interested in material that captures the everyday experiences of Welsh speakers living "elsewhere" and how they connect with their Welsh identity.
Work will be presented as prints and part of exhibition objects, integrating them into a curated space that reflects on the theme through a Welsh lens.
Submission guidelines:
We welcome all types of writing in Welsh—poems, short stories, letters, diary entries, or any piece that speaks to your experience with the theme "Elsewhere."
Please send your work by 20 May 2024 to RuthinArtsFestival@outlook.com
