Cervantes Written Competition closing 14th October 2010

[Irene]

Hi.
Just realised I hadn't put this years entry form on this site.

The Cervantes Arts Festival Written competition is on again.
28th - 31st October -Cervantes. Western Australia

Open - 1st Prize - $250
Junior - 1st Prize - $100


This year they are hoping to put the entries into an anthology as they were finding the public were wanting more time to read the entries. All entries are re-typed for uniformity(with the poets name) and put up for the public to read throughout the festival - there has been great response to having them on display, and this will hopefully encourage new poets to have a try.

For further information, please contact me on 0429652155, or email the festival co-ordinator on:
