What the grant funds

The Library will fund up to two Artists in Residence and/or Scholars in Residence in 2023. Each Artist/Scholar in Residence will serve for 1 year, supported for up to $90,000 each. The purpose of this program is to offer artists and/or scholars the time, space and money to study, and experiment with and/or critique the Library’s digitized and born-digital materials and services. This study, experimentation, and critique is in service of the technological and social possibilities that can come from centering on one or more of the following groups: Black, Indigenous, Hispanic, Asian American or Pacific Islander, and/or other communities of color in the United States. We welcome projects that explore gender, sexuality, class, color, ability, and more among one or more of the above groups. We define artists or scholars broadly. They include (and are not limited to) visual artists, conceptual artists, dancers, journalists, cultural critics, independent scholars, academic scholars, and cultural heritage practitioners, including librarians. See attached Notice of Funding Opportunity for additional information. All applications must be submitted by email to LOC-grants@loc.gov by the deadline stated in the Notice.
