In a STEM-focused world, the National Baseball Poetry Festival and its contests exercise and celebrate the “right brain”…

?

… enabling writers of all levels, backgrounds, and genres to connect with and share their memories, attachments, and experiences with sports, play, and the seasons.

?

The first-ever writing contest & special event to unite Sports and the Fine Arts, the Festival formally recognizes the hand-and-glove nature of artistic and athletic achievement.? After all, without the ancient Greek poets, we wouldn’t know the name of a single ancient Greek Olympic champion!

?

So… Batter Up!... Chatter Up!? Visit the National Baseball Poetry Festival website here: https://baseballpoetryfest.org/... and make a FREE submission to the contest in any one of four youth and adult categories. Adult contest deadline: March 28th!
