Grant Description
The Silvers Grants for Work in Progress support Anglophone writers of any nationality undertaking long-form writing in the fields of literary criticism, arts writing, political analysis, or social reportage. Administered by The Robert B. Silvers Foundation, the program provides grants of up to $10,000 USD (approximately $15,500 AUD) to assist writers in developing substantial works of cultural and intellectual importance. The grants aim to sustain rigorous and original writing during the production phase and prioritise projects without large advance funding.
