Wick Poetry Prize
The Stan and Tom Wick Poetry Prize is offered annually to a previously-unpublished poet by the Wick Poetry Center, which is affiliated with Kent State University. Founded by Maggie Anderson and now administered by David Hassler, the prize awards the winner with $2,500 and publication of their first full-length book of poetry by the Kent State University Press. The winner spends a week in residence at the Wick Poetry Center, the 112-year-old home of faculty emeritus May Prentice, giving master classes to university students and community members, culminating in a reading giving together with the competition's judge on the Kent State campus.Recipients
