CREATIVE WORKS COMPETITION

CALL FOR ENTRIES: AESTHETICA CREATIVE WORKS COMPETITION


I was in touch recently with some information about the Aesthetica Creative Works Competition and just wanted to remind you of the opportunity for members of Felixstowe Scribblers. We've got some fantastic new prizes lined up including a selection of beautiful art books from Prestel publishing and I do hope that some of your writers will be interested in the opportunity!

Last year we had a great response from writers across the UK and I hope the Scribblers members will particpate. An Aesthetica Creative Works Competition poster can be downloaded by CLICKING HERE .
