Funding Artist Fees for New Publications
ISBN or not, commercial or not, bound or unbound – artists need to be paid to bring forward new printed materials. Roman Susan and Soberscove Press will provide $10,000 to 7 publishing projects in the form of a direct payment to artists.
- 3 projects will be selected by committee and receive $2,000;
- 4 projects will be randomly selected by lottery and receive $1,000.
Funding is solely for artist fees, and is not eligible for other project expenses. Deadline for applications will be January 31 and everyone will receive notification of the results by March 31, 2027. We are focused on artists and artwork in the Great Lakes region. If your publishing project does not connect with this region, please share the opportunity with peers who are working here.
