2025 Randall Albers Young Writers Award

The Randall Albers Young Writers Award returns for its third year. On Saturday, May 17, we will present awards to young writers of both prose and poetry and listen as they read aloud from their work. We will be joined by families, friends, teachers, and a host of notable Chicago writers. It is a touching and entertaining way to welcome our new generation of great Chicago writers. The contest entry period will open soon; details to be published soon.
