Foley Poetry Contest America Media

The Foley Poetry Contest: America Media is sponsor of the annual Foley Poetry Award. Each entrant is asked to submit one poem of 45 lines or fewer.
Poems should not be under consideration elsewhere. Poems may address any topic.
The winning poem will be announced in early June and published in the print edition of America. The cash prize is $1,000.
Three runners-up will also be published in subsequent issues. Each year upwards of 1,000 poems are submitted. Our poetry editor and judge for the Foley contest is Joe Hoover, S.J., along with a rotating committee of poets and America editors.
The winning poet will be required to sign a letter of agreement with America Media, publisher of America. Under this agreement, the poet will have the right to sell or republish his/her poem after it is published. It also gives to America Media the right to republish or allow others to republish the poem in any form. Questions can be directed to America's Poetry Editor, Br. Joe Hoover, S.J. at jhoover@americamedia.org. Thank you, and we look forward to reading your work.
