Poet and contest judge Marge Piercy will be joined by local winning poets at a celebratory reading
The contest is divided into two sections, based on location: an open section and a special “local” section open to Cape Cod-based poets. Both sections are judged by award-winning poet Marge Piercy, Poets submitted poetry in the fall of 2022 and received notification of the results in early 2023. Winning local Cape Cod-based poets include: Jennifer M. Phillips, M. Bleichman, Lucile Burt, Wayne Miller, Betty-Ann Lauria, Mary Ellen Redmond, Jen Sexton-Riley, Jim Kubat, Gregory Hischak, and Anne Hoffman.
The contest is named for the late Joe Gouveia, who hosted the weekly Poets Corner radio show on WOMR and was best known as a poet and pioneer of the Cape Cod poetry community.
