Henry Luce Foundation Fellowships for Chinese Poets & Translators: Apply by April 1st!
The Vermont Studio Center (VSC) is now accepting applications from Chinese poets and literary translators for our 2016 Chinese Poetry & Translation Fellowships supported by the Henry Luce Foundation.
VSC will award month-long joint residencies to:
- 5 poets, living anywhere in the world, whose primary language is Chinese. These awards include roundtrip travel and a discretionary stipend.
- 5 English-language translators working with Chinese poetry. These awards include a discretionary stipend.
These joint-residency fellowships are available to established working pairs, but applicants do not have to be part of an established working pair to be eligible for these awards.
We encourage all interested poets and translators to apply–independently selected applicants will be paired by our jury, and each pair will create new work individually and in collaboration during their stay.
Applications for these VSC/Luce Foundation Chinese Poetry & Translation Fellowships are accepted online at vsc.slideroom.com with a deadline of April 1, 2016.
