St. Louis Poetry Center announces 2011 contests
To encourage and promote poets and poetry, the St. Louis Poetry has, for the past 51(now 52) years, sponsored poetry contests that are open to a broad range of poets. One contest focuses on Missouri writers who have published in Missouri literary magazines; another encourages and supports active members of the St. Louis Poetry Center; a third invites high school writers to submit poems, be judged, win prizes and be recognized alongside more practiced writers at our Annual Poetry Concert. The concert is the culminating event of these three poetry contests.
