Posted by: Printed Matter
Deadline: Sun, October 4th, 2026

Applications are now open for the Printed Matter Publisher Work Grant, a program of unrestricted grants available to artists’ book publishers, made possible with the generous support of Wagner Foundation.

Now in its third year, the Publisher Work Grant program offers funding to independent presses with a history of artists’ book publishing, acknowledging awardees’ accomplishments in past work and providing the capacity-building funds to enable future book projects and publisher sustainability. In 2026, three unrestricted grants of $10,000 USD will be awarded to three independent artists’ book publishers. Printed Matter will also extend a featured exhibitor presence at a forthcoming Printed Matter NY or LA Art Book Fair to selected presses.

Applications will be reviewed by Printed Matter and a guest jury. The Jurors will review a shortlist of applications, taking into account past work and contributions of the imprint, the strength of upcoming projects outlined, and the potential impact of the award.

Applications close October 4, 2026, 11:59pm EST. Apply here.
