American Theatre Magazine Invites Applications for
Affiliated Writers Program

Deadline: April 30, 2007

Supported by the Jerome Foundation ( http://www.jeromefdn.org/ ), American Theatre magazine's Affiliated Writers Program for early-career arts writers is designed to foster the development of a corps of cultural journalists, feature writers, and theater critics who are knowledgeable about the field nationally; contribute to an increased public demand for serious criticism and in turn persuade editors nationwide of its importance; and work to enhance the viability of American Theatre magazine as a forum for the publication of high-quality critical writing that is national in scope.

The program is open only to writers based in Minnesota and
New York City.

The program will select two to four writers a year (with writers eligible to repeat the program). Each writer will receive an annual stipend of $3,000 in exchange for three to four articles as assigned. Travel expenses for agreed-upon projects are also covered.

Complete program information is available at the Theatre Communications Group Web site.
