The Portico Library, in conjunction with its Pennine Literary Partners and through the support of The Zochonis Charitable Trust, Arts Council England, and Lynne and David Allan, hosts a series of literary prizes throughout the year which celebrate writers and poets of Northern England and beyond. Further descriptions of these Prizes can be found on the pages to the left.
The 2013 Portico Prize for Young Writers and The Portico Poetry Prize have begun! Please see the pages to the left for more details on how to get involved.
In January 2012 The Portico Gallery will be running an exhibition profiling these Prizes. For more information keep an eye on our Gallery pages or contact our Exhibitions Organiser
