Literary arts Residencies

DEADLINE: October 3, 2024 - 3:45 am

This two-week residency encourages writers of Literary Journalism focusing on Environmental Concerns. Designed to challenge and stimulate, the program aims to inspire creative pieces of non-fiction and to assist the writers in their completion.

The program addresses universal environmental concerns at a time when they could not be more relevant – from fire and flood, to climate change, to life after oil. 

A preeminent space for long-form journalism, this residency emphasizes the strengths of thorough and articulate reporting, distinctive storytelling, and literary devices. 

Running from February 24 - March 7, 2025, this residency receives a full scholarship, including accommodation and meals.

Deadline for application is October 2, 2024.
