This competition is held annually in memory of the late Professor Jon Stallworthy (1935-2014), poet and Fellow of Wolfson College, and is open to any postgraduate student at the University of Oxford.
This year’s theme was ‘Opposites’.
A prize of £1,000 is awarded by two judges, the Professor of Poetry Alicia Stallings and her colleague and fellow-poet Bernard O’Donoghue.
The competition is now closed for this year, and the award ceremony will take place in the LWA at Wolfson on Thursday 16 January at 6pm.
Join us to hear the short-listed poems and discover this year’s winner!
You are also invited to drinks with the poets in the Wolfson Café after the event.
All welcome!
