The Acorn-Plantos Award for Peoples Poetry is awarded annually to a
Canadian poet, based on a book published in the previous calendar year.

others by being accessible to all people in its use of language and image.

The award is open to any living poet who is a Canadian citizen or landed immigrant.
The work may be entered by the poet or the publisher. The award itself honours the poet.

The award consists of a medallion and a cheque for $500.00 CDN.

The deadline for entries published in 2011 is June 30, 2012 (received, not postmarked.)
