The purpose of the reading is to announce the poetry contest winners and have selected entrants read from their submissions.

In October, (SCENE) teamed up with the Lansing City Pulse for its first poetry contest. Entries were allowed to reflect any theme. Poet Stephanie Glazier served as the contest judge. The free contest was open to everyone, including students, teachers and the general public.

Glazier's poems appear in the Iraq Literary Review, Calyx and Foothill. She was a semi-finalist in the 2012 "Discovery" Boston Review Poetry Contest and was named a 2011 Lambda Fellow in poetry. She holds an MFA from Antioch University LA and is assistant director at the Residential College for the Arts and Humanities Center for Poetry at Michigan State University.
