This 2026/2027 academic year, SPACE is excited to be hosting its ninth annual writing competition. Students from every discipline across Dawson College are invited to submit writing that encourages reflection on this year’s SPACE theme, EMERGENCE.
Students can submit in one or more of three categories: prose (fiction or creative non-fiction), poetry, and essay. Submissions may emerge from classroom work as well as independent initiatives and may be individual or collaborative.
Competition winners and honorable mentions will be selected by an interdisciplinary jury of faculty. In addition to prizes awarded in each category, there will also be an opportunity for publication on the SPACE website.
To better understand some of the various dimensions of the theme EMERGENCE, we highly encourage participants to read and consider the description of this year’s theme.
You can read the pieces from the winners and honourable mentions of previous years' writing competitions here.
The deadline for submissions is Monday March 22, 2027.
