PUB: The Center for Book Arts - Opportunities

Poetry Chapbook Competition

The Center for Book Arts invites submissions to its annual Poetry Chapbook Competition. The deadline for the 2013 competition is December 15, 2012. The winning manuscript will be chosen in the spring of 2013 and will be awarded with the publication of a beautifully designed, letterpress-printed, limited-edition chapbook printed and bound by artists at the Center for Book Arts. The edition is limited to 100 signed and numbered copies, ten of which are reserved for the author and the remainder of which will be offered for sale through the Center. The winning poet will also receive a cash award of $500, and a $500 honorarium for a reading, to be held at the Center in the fall of 2013, as well as an exclusive opportunity to stay at the Millay Colony for the Arts in Austerlitz, New York as one of their Winter Shakers. This year's judges will be Harryette Mullen & Sharon Dolin. guidelines and entry form (PDF file)
