Join local poet and author Joel Tann for a free event exploring the creative journey behind his newly released poetry collection, Vagrant Spirit.

Joel is an accomplished writer, artist and poet whose passionate, poignant and personal performances have entertained audiences in regional Queensland for over a decade. A graduate of James Cook University's School of Creative Arts, Joel's published works include two poetry collections in print—Vagrant Spirit (2025) and Stardust and Soil (2022)—as well as spoken word recordings Dogma (2018), Hiding From The Light (2018), and Monarch (2016). Joel believes strongly in the value of creative self-expression, and hopes to inspire and equip others to discover and use their own authentic voice. He lives in North Rockhampton with his dwindling collection of cacti and succulents, and his growing collection of freshwater shrimp.
