The Creative Arts Fellowship supports one practising Australian writer to develop a new creative work inspired by or using the National Library of Australia’s unique collections. The Fellowship provides $35,000 to enable sustained onsite research over 12 weeks, with up to 24 months to complete research. It is intended for professional writers working in literary genres such as poetry, fiction, creative non-fiction, personal essays, graphic novels or writing for performance, and aims to promote innovative artistic engagement with rare and comprehensive national collections.
