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.
For more details and updates on these sessions, please sign up for our emails and CLA Newsletter here.
