*** We are nearing our submission cap! Spring 2025 Submissions will close on 4/7/25 ***
SATELLITE LECTURE SERIES
The Satellite Lecture Series, hosted by the editors of Radar Poetry, features presentations on various topics with comprehensive Q&A sessions. Our Zoom lectures are interactive and designed to build community among poets and artists. Registration will be open via Submittable for upcoming lectures. Scroll down to register.
POETRY - GENERAL
We welcome submissions of poems during our two open reading periods: November 1 - January 1 and March 1 - May 1.
Given the high volume of submissions Radar happily receives, we can only read non-fee submissions at the beginning of each reading period. Please submit early to take advantage of this opportunity.
Once the free submission cap is reached, we will continue to accept $3.00 “Tip Jar” submissions for the remainder of the reading period.
Enhanced Feedback Option
For a fee of $25, you may request up to one page of feedback from the editors, which will include notes on craft, content, and tone, as well as suggested revisions. Submit up to 3 poems, totaling no more than 5 pages.
Please note: We reserve the right to close our general submission categories early if we reach a certain number of submissions, in order to give each submission the time and consideration it deserves.
We do not consider AI-generated poetry.
Response Times
We respond within 60 days, and often sooner.
CONISTON PRIZE
We will be open to Coniston Prize submissions from June 1 - August 1. Full guidelines at www.radarpoetry.com/contest.
VISUAL ART
Radar Poetry accepts original submissions of visual art in any medium during our two reading periods, March 1-May 1 and November 1-January 1.
Submit up to 20 images, in .jpg format, with at least 300 dpi/ppi resolution. Within your submission, include a brief bio and a link to your website and/or social media. We only consider artwork that has not previously been published in a literary magazine.
Radar promotes and celebrates the artists we publish on social media.
