What is the Glasgow Prize?
The Shenandoah/Glasgow Prize for Emerging Writers is a $2,000 award for the author of a first book of poetry. Even old books by those who have not yet published a second in the genre are eligible. The award, once funded by the Arthur Glasgow Foundation, is now funded and administered by the staff of Shenandoah. The editor selects the finalists and appoints a judge, who then selects the winner.
