The Site of Big Shoulders presents a contest that brings together art and the poetry of RHINO magazine (http://www.rhinopoetry.org). Our contest picks the best submitted art and/or photography inspired by each poem. Then, this fall, we feature the winners alongside the poems in an article on The Site of Big Shoulders as well as at a reading and gala reception at our Wicker Park headquarters.
