MONTREAL WEST CHILDREN'S WRITING CONTEST
We are laying the foundation of an annual event. 2021 will mark the first year of the Montreal West Children’s writing contest. Every child, aged 6 to 13 years old, member of the Library, can submit a poem, essay, short story on a topic of their choice.
|
The text can be in English or French; illustrations are not mandatory. The entries will be accepted until June 15th. To participate, please pick up an envelope from the library in which to submit the text. The child’s name should be written on the back of the last page to allow for a transparent process and to make sure the judging panel will evaluate the writings anonymously.
The originals will be returned after the end of the contest and the announcement of the winners. First prize: $80. Second prize: $50. Third prize: $30. |
