Artist Book Grant
The objective of the Library Fellows program is to encourage and promote the creation of artists’ books and to support NMWA’s Library and Research Center and book art programs.
Amount of Grant
The Library Fellows program provides up to $12,000 biennially for the production of an artist book in an edition of 125. An additional $1,000 is provided for the artist to create 500 copies of a promotional brochure for the book, as well as $1,000 for the artist to travel to the Library Fellows’ annual meeting to present her book upon completion.
Deadline
Proposals must be postmarked on or before June 30, biennially. No exceptions. The next deadline is June 30, 2012.
Eligibility
The artist who is responsible for the overall creation, design and realization of the book must be a woman. Technical assistance in developing the book edition by both women and men is acceptable. Collaborative projects between two or more women artists are allowed.
Only new books will be considered. Previously published books or books that are versions of books previously published or planned for publication will not be considered.
