Call to Poets for the 2010 Poetry Month contest

The Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council seeks submissions for its third annual Poetry Month Celebration. Selected poets will be invited to read at a special event during April, National Poetry Month, which will also feature recognized local published poets, including Kelli Russell Agodon and Jared Leising. Winning poems will be displayed at the Shoreline Arts Festival in June. Poems will be judged in three separate divisions: Secondary Student (grades 7-12), College Student, and Non-Student Adult.

Cash prizes will be awarded in College and Adult categories. Submission deadline is March 19, 2010. Application forms are available online at the Arts Council website.    For more information please contact the Arts Council office at 206-417-4645 or email.
