Thank you to everyone who helped us reach our crowdfunding goal!
Our Koestler Voices Vol. 4 Crowdfunder is now closed.
This year we are putting together the fourth edition of Koestler Voices: New Poetry From Prisons, an anthology of poetry from the 2022 and 2023 Koestler Awards. With your help and generosity, we reached our £5,000 goal and raised the necessary funds to publish around 50 award winners’ poetry works, and share copies of the anthology with prison libraries across the UK.

Koestler Voices: New Poetry from Prisons Vol. 4 will be available to purchase via our online shop later this autumn, or in our exhibition pop-up shop – make sure you get your hands on a copy before they’re gone.
