Submissions are open for the Annual Creative Writing and Art Contest

Creative Writing and Art Contest
Art, Fiction, Nonfiction, Poetry

Submission Deadline:
February 3, 2025, 4pm

The USU Creative Writing and Art Contest is open to all USU undergraduate students from all departments and majors. Each year, the contest receives hundreds of entries, and the judging is often competitive and close, so we want to thank and congratulate all the students who have participated. We urge all USU students to cultivate their talent and to keep writing—for love of the word and the craft. The submission deadline each year is the first week in February. 

Results will be made public by the end of March. Winners will be contacted as soon as they are determined. Winning submissions are published in a special contest issue of USU's international undergraduate literary magazine, Sink Hollow. A reading of the winning work and a Sink Hollow Special Contest Issue release party will be held at Helicon West the 4th Thursday in April.
