Haiku Contest

Let me get this straight:

Writing a movie haiku

wins me free popcorn?

…that’s the gist of it, yeah!

For the sixth year running, the Athena Cinema is accepting submissions of movie or theater-related haikus from the public for our Annual Haiku Contest.

Submissions will be accepted from Black Friday through noon on December 31st, 2024. The best haiku will be announced on New Year’s Day, and the winner will receive free popcorn at the theater for all of 2025! You might even get to see your haiku on our marquee…

You can enter by submitting your poem via the submission form below or email us at athenacinema@ohio.edu. Be advised that your Haiku must follow the 5/7/5 syllable count to be eligible. Inability to adhere to this format will disqualify your submission.
