Young Poet Awards 2026
For our Young Poet Awards, we had our submission postbox at Theatre Alibi for February half-term activities and worked with Bowhill Primary, Montgomery Primary and West Exe School. We are delighted with 60+ submissions and our winners will get their prizes next week at a special pop-up at Exeter Library.
Exeter Library will display the winning poems for the duration of the festival and one of the poems is printed in our festival programme. So be sure to pick one up at participating venues next week. For those of you who’ve caught the Shakespeare bug, there’ll be a selection of Libraries Unlimited’s Shakespeare collection for you to peruse and borrow next to the poems display.
