Grants For Authors/Writers
1. [NEW] The CLBS Indigenous Writer in Residence Program
The residency seeks to provide Indigenous writers with the space, time, and place to explore their creative endeavors. Three three−week residencies are available each year, with some flexibility based on the writer’s schedule. Housing, meals, and a workspace will be provided, along with a $1,000 travel stipend. The resident will also have access to all facilities, including canoes, classroom spaces, microscopes, and the ability to join classes if desired. Additional needs and requests will be considered on a case−by−case basis.
Deadline: February 15, 2026
