The Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation Grantmaking

The Photography Grant from The Robert Mapplethorpe Foundation supports museums and public institutions in the United States in expanding photography programming, including acquisitions, exhibitions, and publications. The foundation is dedicated to advancing the art of photography and preserving the legacy of Robert Mapplethorpe's work. The program provides grants to institutions, not individual photographers, and may also assist independent curators in developing photography exhibitions. Eligible applicants are U.S.-based museums and public institutions with missions aligned with photography as fine art. Organizations interested in applying should contact the foundation directly, as the program does not have a publicly listed deadline or standard application cycle.

A New Round of the Norwegian Scholarship Programme for Ukrainian Writers is sponsored by Ukrainian PEN, The Norwegian Non-Fiction Writers and Translators Association, the Norwegian Helsinki Committee and the Norwegian Writers' Union, within the framework of The Nansen Support Programme for Ukraine. This program offers scholarships to Ukrainian writers to support the creation of new works that reflect on the war experience, rethink Ukrainian culture, foster deeper understanding of Ukrainian culture, and highlight the diversity of cultures and lived experiences. It supports authors in non-fiction, fiction, and children's/young adult literature.
