The Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award is an American prize that is one of the world's most lucrative poetry awards. It is presented to an emerging poet who has not yet received great fame or success, but who does have an established body of work. The winner of the award receives $100,000. The award was created by Kate Tufts in honour of her late husband Kingsley Tufts. She also created the smaller Kate Tufts Discovery Award which goes to a first time poet.
