The Wesley Michel Wright Prize in Poetry ( PDF )
The University of Melbourne is pleased to invite entries from Australian Citizens for this prestigious prize for original verse or poetry in the English language. The annual Wesley Michel Wright Prize in Poetry is open for award to an author or composer of original verse or poetry in the English and who is an Australian citizen. Each applicant must submit for assessment an appropriate poetic work.
The prize is awarded by the Council, on the recommendation of a selection committee appointed by the Council on the recommendation of the Faculty of Arts, to the candidate who submits the best work. If in any year the committee considers that no work submitted is of a sufficiently high standard the prize is not to be awarded in that year.
