Eligibility
Writers & poets living or working in Lowell may submit one poem or flash fiction piece that speaks to the Shelter theme.
Theme: SHELTER
Shelter can be defined in many ways – a safe warm place, the company of friends, or family; shelter may be found in music, books, imagination, nature, money, protection, meditation and exertion. What is the essence of shelter; what images communicate shelter and its importance to human survival, worth and dignity? People, places, street scenes, home scenes… Are city streets sheltering? Are some places more or less sheltering? What is the impact of loss of shelter in our communities?
