A Note on the Status of the Lesbian Writers Fund — May 2010

Thank you for your interest in the Lesbian Writers Fund, which provides grants to emerging lesbian poets and fiction writers across the U.S. Please note that the grant application deadline for this year has been moved to March 2011. We are pushing back the timeline for this application cycle for several reasons – in order to evaluate the fund to align it more closely with Astraea’s mission and overall grantmaking programs, to implement a technological upgrade to the fund that would enable an online application process, and to leverage additional resources to enable the fund to thrive. We are deeply committed to the Lesbian Writers Fund as an opportunity for LGBTI women to receive funding for their amazing work, and we will keep you informed of the new application once it is available.

Email grants@astraeafoundation.org with any questions regarding this fund.
