[1][2] The award was $1000, and from 1995–2004, the winning sonnet and the eleven finalists were published inFollowing the discontinuation of The Formalist in 2004, the winning sonnet and eleven finalist poems were published in the literary magazine Measure.[3] The creation of this award is associated with the "New Formalism" movement.
In the announcement of the 2017 winner and finalists, the 2017 competition was described as the "24th & final" contest. [4]
