New Contrast needs your help

How you can help New Contrast

We have a number of our 50th birthday issues left over. It is a bumper issue with some of the original poets of the 1960s (Nadine Gordimer, Jack Cope, Etienne LeRoux, Ingrid Jonker, Uys Krige and more) as well as more contemporary poets and writers. If we could sell these issues would be great = R100 (local) R130 (International). We believe a bit of Africana and part of our heritage.

Have a look on our blog at New Contrast 50th Birthday-bash for a write-up of the event.


We have an article that we would like to get into newspapers both local and national if possible, or even magazines would be great. If you can help us here I will forward it to you.

Another way to help is to get a collection going to sponsor back-copies or a subscription of new contrast to get into your local schools in the hope of them subscribing next year.

Also very few of our local libraries stock New Contrast. If we can get it into all local libraries would also be fantastic. So if we knew who the people were to contact (the ones that make the decisions) would also help.

Give a family member or a friend a gift subscription of New Contrast for their birthday or for Christmas.
