The Judith Wright Award, also known as the Judith Wright Prize, was awarded annually as part of the ACT Poetry Award between 2005 and 2011 for a book of poems published the previous year in book form by an Australian author.
It was awarded for a published collection by an Australian poet.
The ACT Poetry Award for unpublished poets was awarded in 2003 and 2004 by the ACT Government.
[1] In 2012, the Government reviewed the ACT Poetry Prize, and developed three new initiatives: the ACT Poetry Prize for a single poem, a Centenary Poetry in ACTION program and Youth Poetry Slams, to begin in ACT schools in 2013.
The last ACT poetry prize appears to have been awarded in 2013.
