Type: Awards, Grants, Fellowships [View all]
Posted by: Hand Papermaking, Inc.
Deadline: Mon, October 19th, 2020

In this time of necessary societal transformation, we recognize that Hand Papermaking has been operating within a culture that perpetuates social inequities. We are resolved in taking concrete steps so we may fulfill our role as the journal of record that truly reflects the full breadth of work in our field. In solidarity with the Movement for Black Lives, Hand Papermaking is launching the Hand Papermaking Black Writers Fellowships, an evolving program that currently offers two opportunities for Black writers: Reporter and Researcher.

The Black Writers Fellowship: Researcher is a research-based opportunity for a Black writer that will result in the publication of an original article in Hand Papermaking magazine. The applicant’s proposal must be related to the field of hand papermaking and indicate an ongoing investment in research and inquiry in the field. The article will be long-form and eligible for publication in Hand Papermaking magazine, Winter 2021 issue. The Researcher will receive a $1,000 award and a fellowship stipend of up to $1,000 for expenses incurred, including but not limited to research travel, resources, transcription or translation services, site visits, free attendance to a field-related conference, workshop attendance, and other professional development opportunities.

For more information about the The Black Writers Fellowship: Researcher — including eligibility and submission requirements, deadlines, selection and notification processes, Fellowship timeline, and an invitation to attend a virtual Fellowship FAQ session on Monday, October 5 (at 7pm ET), CLICK HERE TO DOWNLOAD A FULL FELLOWSHIP RFP.
