Gerald Lampert Award

Gerald Lampert Award

Canadian poetry award

The Gerald Lampert Memorial Award is an annual literary award presented by the League of Canadian Poets to the best volume of poetry published by a first-time poet. It is presented in honour of poetry promoter Gerald Lampert.[1] Each winner receives an honorarium of $1000.

In its earliest years, the award was not necessarily limited to poetry, but was presented to the year's best first book by a Canadian writer in either poetry or prose.[2]
