The 2022 edition of the Lauria/Frasca Poetry Prize will be judged by George Guida, Maria Famà, and distinguished judge Kathleen Ossip. The prize promotes the literature of the Italian diaspora and is open to poets of Italian descent writing poetry in English. The winning poet will be awarded $1000 and Bordighera Press will publish the manuscript, along with a standard royalty contract.

Quality poetry in any style and on any theme is sought. Here are the guidelines.
