Funding for Events

Since its inception in 1970, Poets & Writers has provided fees to writers who give readings or conduct writing workshops. Each year, our Readings/Workshops program supports hundreds of writers participating in events in large cities and small towns throughout New York and California, as well as in Atlanta, Chicago, Detroit, Houston, Seattle, New Orleans, Tucson, and Washington D.C.

To apply for funds to support your event, download our application.

If you're a writer or an organization interested in learning more about the Readings/Workshops program, please check out our FAQ.

Poets & Writers is committed to making literature available to the widest possible public, including audiences that rarely have access to literary events. Learn more about the special projects we support that bring readings and workshops to prisons, clinics, homeless shelters, settlement homes, and more.

Every bit of money I earn for my creativity helps me stay brave [so that I can] continue my work, so I appreciate Poets & Writers’ support for literary artists.

– Writer Jaime Cortez after a reading with Intersection for the Arts in San Francisco
