Patrons do not have to be Andover residents to enter the contest but need to be able to pick up any potential prizes in person. Gift cards to the Andover Bookstore are awarded to first, second, and third place for both the middle school and high school categories.

We will notify entrants if they won, received an honorable mention, or didn't receive anything this year by Wednesday, May 3. 

The reception and reading will be Wednesday, May 10 at 7:00 pm and all entrants, families, and community members are invited.

This is not an in-person program but rather just a listing noting that the contest is now open for submissions.
