Winners

The winners of the Gawler Gallery Ekphrastic Poetry competition. Left is Colleen Moyne, in the centre at the back is Alex Robertson, right is Marilyn Simpson, and in the middle front is Carolyn Cordon. All are members of the Adelaide Plains Chapter and verse group, who meet in Gawler at the Prince Albert Hotel every Thursday afternoon.

The competition was a fascinating adventure in combining two art forms and in creation. Visual arts and literature mixed well together that Saturday, that's for sure! Those competing all viewed art works hanging in the gallery and then wrote one or more poems about the art work chosen. 

It will certainly happen again, next year probably and we all hope to have even more people involved next time.
