PROJECTS
These are some of the projects Hughes PR has proudly supported, showcasing creative campaigns, media coverage, and the stories we’ve helped bring to life across books, arts, and culture.
PHANTOM BILLSTICKERS NATIONAL POETRY DAY
22 AUGUST 2025
In 2025, I managed the coordination of over 110 events nationwide for Phantom Billstickers National Poetry Day, marking my fourth year handling publicity and my second year as National Coordinator. I liaised directly with event organisers, oversaw communications and publicity across multiple channels, and helped ensure this nationwide celebration of poetry was highly visible and well supported.
UPSURGE BAY OF ISLANDS ARTS FESTIVAL
8-15 SEPTEMBER 2024
In 2024, I supported the Upsurge Festival for the fourth year, working closely with the Festival Directors on the Kōrero Conversations programme. My role included managing event coordination across the two-day schedule, taking on MC duties, and conducting a featured interview with author Jude Dobson about her bestselling book, The Last Secret Agent, helping to ensure the smooth running of this biennial Festival.
