NEPC 2025 Contest Reading

Please join us on Zoom for our annual reading, featuring Winners and Finalists from our contests:

• Samuel Washington Allen Prize for a long poem or poem sequence
• E.E. Cummings Prize, for a compelling, lyrical, or experimental short poem
• Amy Lowell Prize, for an outstanding poem of any length or style by a poet with strong ties to New England
• Diana Der-Hovanessian Prize, for a translation from any language.
• Jean Pedrick Chapbook Prize.

The reading will take place in two parts, the first beginning at 1:00 pm, the second at 2:30 pm. There will be an “intermission” break between the two parts.

Advance registration is required. There will not be a “one size fits all” Zoom link. After registering here, you will receive a confirmation email with your personalized session link, which will be good for both parts of the reading.

We look forward to seeing you!
