The Creative Capital | Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant Program supports
writers whose work addresses contemporary visual art through project-based
grants, ranging from 3,000 to 50,000 USD, issued directly to individual
authors. The first program of its type, it was founded in recognition of
both the financially precarious situation of arts writers and their
indispensable contribution to a vital artistic culture. The Arts Writers
Grant Program aims to support the broad spectrum of writing on contemporary
visual art, from general-audience criticism to academic scholarship.
