2024 EQUUS Film & Arts Fest - Literary | Podcast Contest Entry Form

Welcome to the EQUUS Film & Arts Fest Literary Contest. Every horse has a story, it’s our mission at the EQUUS Film & Arts Fest to share those stories, through film, podcast, live stream, art, and literature.

Literary Contest Opens: February 1, 2024

Literary Contest Deadline: September 15, 2024,  

WINNERS to be announced at the 2024 EQUUS Film & Arts Fest in Albuquerque

Literary Contest Entry Fee: $50 per literary work entered per category (print material, e-books, magazine articles)

The only criterion for each title is that it captures the elements or essence of the horse, the horse industry at large, and/or all that surrounds the horse.

A Literary Contest will be conducted in the EQUUS Film & Arts Fest program.  We will be awarding WINNIE Awards and Honorable Mentions for literary works. Select authors will be invited to join in on Literary Discussion Panels. Prominent exposure on the EQUUS FILM & ARTS FEST website and on FaceBook, Twitter, and Pinterest will also be given. 

The EQUUS Film & Arts Fest strives to serve the interests and needs of equine filmmakers, artists, podcasters, live streamers, bloggers, and authors, connecting artists with audiences, exhibiting, and promoting new films and filmmaking talent and equine art, nurturing a creative community by facilitating relationships that last well beyond each year’s festival. We curate for quality, not quantity. The EQUUS Film & Arts Fest is held in a world-class destination. If your book is selected, we would like for you to attend and present your work to the horse lovers who live in and/or are visiting. And YOU can expect first-rate hospitality, appreciative audiences, networking events, awards, and the opportunity to explore the most celebrated city in the country.
