Prizes, Awards & Fellowships

The Lannan Literary Awards and Fellowships were established in 1989 to honor both established and emerging writers whose work is of exceptional quality. The awards recognized writers who made significant contributions to English-language literature. The fellowships recognized writers of distinctive literary merit who demonstrated potential for continued outstanding work.

Cultural Freedom awards and fellowships were granted to individuals in recognition of their extraordinary and courageous work promoting social justice and the human right to freedom of imagination, inquiry, and full cultural expression. These individuals are typically advocates for education justice, prison reform and abolition, environmental justice and protection, social and economic justice, human rights, and press and journalistic freedom.
