We are excited to announce a new writing contest open to all residents in the Quinte region! If you, or someone you know, is a talented wordsmith, please enter by March 31.
This year’s theme of the Wind & Water Writing Contest is Exploring, which you can interpret in any way you choose. Tell us tales of searching through caves or diving through local lakes, or even exploring the inner self and what makes humans tick.
The longlist and shortlist will be selected by local writer, Kelly S. Thompson, and a jury of professional writers will vote to select the winner! The shortlist will be announced mid-April, with the winner announced end April. Please note that judging is blind and winners are chosen based solely on the opinion of the jury.
To learn more, please visit www.countyarts.ca/wind-water-writing-contest.
There will be prizes!
1st Prize: $250, published in Artscene(our monthly newsletter with over 1200 subscribers) and on our website and shared in social media.
2nd Prize: $100, published on our website.
3rd Prize: honourable mention published on our website and a fifty-page consult with Kelly S. Thompson.
