2015 Rhino Editors’ Prizes

Every year RHINO Poetry selects works that have had the greatest impact on their editors. Cash awards are given in poetry for First, Second, and Honorable Mention, and the First Place winner is nominated for a Pushcart Prize (with other place winners occasionally nominated as well). There is also a Translation Prize which receives a cash award as well. There is no application process; the winners are selected from the general submissions to be published in the annual and are also published on the magazine’s website.
