Arts Writers Grant Program

Thursday evenings in March! Join us for a series of virtual readings, screenings, and conversations to celebrate the essays included in Cookie Jar 1: Home is a Foreign Place

Each event will take place between 7-8PM ET via Zoom, and will consist of a presentation by the author(s), followed by a conversation between the authors and the series editors. 

For information on each talk, visit the Cookie Jar website.

To receive the Zoom link, you must register via the Cookie Jar Eventbrite page.

The Andy Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant is pleased to announce its 2022 grantees. The program supports writing about contemporary art and aims to ensure that critical writing remains a valued mode of engaging with the visual arts.

In its 2022 cycle the Arts Writers Grant has awarded a total of $695,000 to 20 writers. Ranging from $15,000 to $50,000 in three categories—Articles, Books, and Short-Form Writing—these grants support projects addressing both general and specialized art audiences, from short reviews for magazines and newspapers to in-depth scholarly studies.
