This fellowship for the 2023-2024 academic year is administered by the Library of Congress and one of the few for graduate students doing scholarly work in caricature and cartoon – in any field. Graduate students (and recent post-docs) enrolled in a program in North America (Canada, Mexico, and the United States) are eligible. If you are not a U.S. citizen or a legal resident of the United States, then you must have a valid visa that permits accepting monetary fellowships to be eligible. As a government institution, the Library cannot make exceptions.

Please email swann@loc.gov if you have questions.

The Library of Congress appreciates the opportunity to post this notice! Feel free to forward this to graduate students and recent post-docs who may not be on this list.
