Submission Details 
The Persephone Foundation and its Finding Persephone initiatives are focused on healing, growth, and the regeneration of mind, body, and spirit.
We celebrate and nurture creative regeneration through the arts, communication, and practical magic.
The goal of the Finding Persephone initiative is to uplift both femininity, and the arts. This competition aims to do both.
The Finding Persephone Poetry Competition is looking for poetry that explores what femininity means to you. All gender identities are welcome to submit.
The competition will be judged by Aotearoa poets Hera Lindsay Bird, Tayi Tibble, and Cadence Chung.
