Literary Arts Fund

The Literary Arts Fund, a sponsored project of the National Center for Civic Innovation, is a national effort to support the nonprofit literary arts field in the United States, including publishers, presenters, and other organizations that directly support creative writers and strengthen their relationships with readers. Launched in 2025, the fund will distribute at least $50 million over the next five years, concluding in 2031. It will also further the development of the Literary Arts Funders Collaborative, a new affinity group for charitable foundation leaders interested in learning more about the literary arts field and championing literature. The initiative was founded and launched by the Ford Foundation, Hawthornden Foundation, Lannan Foundation, John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation, Mellon Foundation, Poetry Foundation, and an anonymous foundation.
