Brief Explanation

Each year The Reading Foundation organises Poetry Day. As a cultural organisation The Reading Foundation is very tight on production budget €800 euros. On top they wanted to communicate an event that is often perceived as dull and difficult by the big audience. The general public considers poetry as "incrowd-ish," intellectual and not entertaining at all.

How can we make poetry hot, fresh and young? How can we draw maximum attention to Poetry Day? How can we offer something to our target that changes their perception and behaviour towards poetry?

With Out of Office Poetry.
