Applications are open for the Southern Prize & State Fellowships in Literary and Visual Arts, and the Literary Arts Project Grant from South Arts as part of its 2025 grants cycle. 

South Arts is proud to continue investing directly in the creativity, innovation, and development of literary and visual artists across our region,” said Gretchen McLennon, interim South Arts President and CEO. “Year after year, these grants provide not only financial support, but ample opportunities for Southern voices to be amplified and celebrated within the community.”

The Southern Prize & State Fellowships in Literary and Visual Arts annually awards 18 artists in visual and literary mediums with a $5,000 State Fellowship each. The Southern Prize includes a residency and an additional $25,000. 

The Literary Arts Project Grant gives up to $5,000 to independent writers, literary publishers, and small presses to create and publish poetry, fiction, nonfiction, young readers’ literature, and drama.

The deadline for applications is Nov. 19 and can be done at www.southarts.org
