WRITING CONTEST

The Newark Public Library and the New Jersey Performing Arts Center hosted a city-wide writing contest for high school-age youth living in Newark. Click here for more information.

The two first-place winners read their works during the program, “My Newark,” at the NJ Performing Arts Center on March 17, 2023, as part of the Philip Roth Festival.

An anthology of the top 14 pieces has been produced. A limited quantity of hard copies are available in the Philip Roth Personal Library. Also available as a PDF.
