Black in White Poetry Competition 2022

Our book launch event took place on Saturday 29 October 2022 from 4.30-8.30pm, at the Conference Room, Barnet Council, Colindale, London, with a keynote address by the Mayor of Barnet and poetry readings from competition winners and highly commended entrants.

CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR POETRY COMPETITION WINNERS!

From the almost 80 poems we received this year, the judges awarded four main prizes. After choosing the 1st and 2nd place prizes winners, we ended up selecting two 3rd place prize winners since we felt both poems warranted the position. We awarded 27 highly commended places. Thanks also to everyone who entered... we heard your voice.

All of these poems have been published in our third poetry anthology, Black in White Community Collection Volume 2, available to purchase from our website store now.
