Frank Callery is a retired Journalist, Editor and Songwriter.

As a poet, Frank has had work published in national and international journals; selections of his work have also been published in six anthologies and some of his poems have been broadcast on RTE 1 radio and provincial radio stations.  He has previously won the Allingham Award (1983) and the Gerard Manly Hopkins Bicentenary Award (1989), and the Public Services Award 19??.

In 2014 he published his collected poems: ‘The Whole Shebang’, as a kind of goodbye to poetry. 

In an earlier life he was a founding director of Poetry Ireland, and was involved in many of the poetry workshops in Dublin but more particularly with the Howth Poetry Workshop where he was co-ordinator for many years. 

We are grateful for the support of The Arts Council and Limerick City & County Council.

Zoom closed-captions will be made available for this event.

Participation is limited to the first 100 guests to join.
