The Southwest Minnesota Writing Gallery is NOW Accepting Submissions

What is The Southwest Minnesota Writing Gallery?

In celebration of the October 20, 2010 Second Annual National Day on Writing, and with the help of NCTE (National Council for Teachers of English), high school and college students in Southwest Minnesota have a place to display a piece of writing of their choice.


Who can participate?
