Do you know a talented teen writer?

Encourage them to submit a poem for the chance to earn the Georgia Poet Laureate’s Prize, which recognizes the art of the written word. “Participation in the competition was a way for me to show the world my artistic prowess and what I can do. If you love the arts and want to show off your love, this is a wonderful opportunity to do so.” - 2025 Poet Laureate’s Prize winner Jada Michelle Ellis from Woodland High School in Henry County Entries are now being accepted.
