Guidelines are available online for the Creative Capital/Warhol Foundation Arts Writers Grant Program supporting individual writers addressing contemporary visual art. Deadline is June 8, 2009, for grants in the following categories: articles; blogs; books; new and alternative media; and short-form writing. Grants range from $3,000 to $50,000 depending on the needs and scope of the project. "Designed to encourage and reward writing about contemporary art that is rigorous, passionate, eloquent and precise, as well as to create a broader audience for arts writing," say the guidelines, "the Arts Writers Grant Program aims to strengthen the field as a whole and to ensure that critical writing remains a valued mode of engaging the visual arts."
