Stand Out - The Red Penguin Collection: Annual Poetry Project is a curated anthology celebrating the power of poetic voices that dare to be seen, heard, and remembered.

This annual collection brings together poets from diverse backgrounds, styles, and lived experiences-each offering work that is bold, intimate, and unmistakably their own. From quiet reflections to fierce declarations, Stand Out honors poetry that challenges convention, sparks emotion, and leaves a lasting imprint on the reader.

At its heart, this project is about visibility and courage. It invites poets to step forward, claim their space on the page, and contribute to a collective work that showcases authenticity, creativity, and the transformative power of language.

Thoughtfully edited and beautifully produced by Red Penguin Books, Stand Out is more than an anthology-it is a statement. A testament to the idea that poetry still matters, voices still resonate, and words still have the power to change lives.

Stand out. Speak boldly. Be part of something enduring.
