Portico Poetry Prizes 2012.

The library is very excited to announce that we are holding two new poetry prizes; The Portico Young Poetry Prize (Under 18s) and The Portico Poetry Prize (Over 18s).

The prizes are inspired by Carol Ann Duffy’s poem `Havisham’ and are a tribute to the works of Charles Dickens; as such, all poems must be based on, or related to, the works of Dickens. 
The judges are Richy Campbell, Lisa Mansell and Krishan Coupland (Under 18s) and Mandy Coe (Over 18s).
The deadline for both competitions is the 31st July, for more details contact poetry@theportico.org.uk. 

More to follow, including entry forms, flyers and competition rules.
