The Creative Capital | Andy WarholFoundation Arts Writers Grant Program 
supports writers whose work addressescontemporary visual art through 
project-based grants, ranging from 15,000to 50,000 USD, issued directly to 20 
individual authors a year. The programwas founded in recognition of both the 
financially precarious situation ofarts writers and their indispensable 
contribution to a vital artisticculture. The Arts Writers Grant Program aims to 
support the broad spectrumof writing on contemporary visual art, from 
general-audience criticism toacademic scholarship.

 Writers who meet the program'seligibility requirements are invited to apply in 
the followingcategories:
 –Articles
 –Blogs
 –Books
 –New and alternative media
 –Short-form writing

 Through all its grants, the Arts Writers Grant Program aims tohonor and 
encourage writing about art:
 –that is rigorous,passionate, eloquent, and precise;
 –in which a keen engagementwith the present is infused with an appreciation of 
the historical;
 –that is neither afraid to take a stand nor content to deliverauthoritative 
pronouncements, but serves rather to pose questionsand generate new 
possibilities for thinking about, seeing, and makingart;
 –that is sensitive to both the importance and difficultyof situating aesthetic 
objects within their broader social andpolitical contexts;
 –that does not dilute or sidestep complexideas but renders accessible their 
meaning and value;
–that creatively challenges the limits of existing conventions,without 
valorizing novelty as an end in itself.
