As part of our mission, Washington University’s Center for the Literary Arts curates and maintains a database of Creative Practice Fellowships, Grants, & Residencies relevant to the WashU and larger literary arts and creative practice community.
Every academic year, the CLA also hosts a series of informal info sessions on selected external and internal Creative Practice Fellowship opportunities to support the work of our creative practice and literary arts community.
