Literary Event Grants from Poets & Writers

Poets & Writers's Readings/Workshops program is accepting applications for literary events taking place in its new fiscal year, which begins July 1. The Readings/Workshops program provides small matching grants ($50-$500) to pay the honoraria of writers who give readings or teach writing workshops at all types of community venues in California, Houston, Seattle, and Tucson.

Guidelines and an application are available atwww.pw.org/funding. Organizations must apply on a writer's behalf, but writers may initiate the application process. Applications must be received at least eight weeks in advance of the event date.

Poets & Writers is especially interested in supporting workshops with teens, seniors, and other underserved populations, and events taking place in rural areas of California. Contact Assistant Director Jamie FitzGerald with questions at 310-481-7195.
