Artemesia Arts International Poetry Competition

Sat 5 Apr 2025

Submissions are now open for the Artemesia Arts International Poetry Competition.

Poems should be a maximum of 40 lines, not counting the title or any line spaces. Entries must be previously unpublished or have won a prize elsewhere. Simultaneous submissions are welcome, but the competition must be informed should the poem be chosen elsewhere before the competition finishes.

There will be cash prizes of £200 (1st) and £80 for two runners-up. Winners are also invited to join a selected poetry retreat in France in September.

Judge: Jo Bell
