Sundress Publications is open for submissions for grant applications from Palestinian writers with a chapbook or full-length book in progress. All eligible authors are welcome to submit during our application period which closes on December 31st, 2024. Applicants may apply for any genre.
The Sundress Microgrant for Palestinian Writers will award $500, a one-week residency at the Sundress Academy for the Arts in Knoxville, TN courtesy of the G. Gazelka & Friends Fellowship, and the potential for publication to one writer of Palestinian descent with a chapbook or full-length in progress to support the completion of said project.
All applications will be read by members of our editorial or reader board. One writer will be selected, who will then work with Sundress’s residency team and editorial board.
To apply, please send a sample of the work in progress (up to 15 pages) along with a brief (no more than 500 words) artist/personal statement about what this grant would mean to the completion of said work. There is no fee to apply.
