The Creative Capital | Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant Program supports individual writers whose work addresses contemporary visual art through grants ranging from 3,000 to 50,000 USD.
Writers who meet the program's eligibility requirements are invited to apply in the following categories:
• articles
• blogs
• books
• new and alternative media
• short-form writing
They regret that due to legal constraints they can only fund U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and holders of O-1 visas. This is very disappointing for us arts writers this side of the Atlantic but for those of you who are lucky enough to tick the right boxes please visit http://www.artswriters.org for more guidelines and additional eligibility requirements.
