MICROGRANT

[CLOSED—decisions to be released in November]

​

For ISSUE II, we're giving out two $100 microgrants to BIPOC creators.

​

On account of COVID-19 and the extenuating situations of this year, EX/POST is opening applications for a microgrant opportunity. We will select two BIPOC winners, who will each receive $100 and the publication of a portfolio. Regardless of whether or not your work is chosen, all submissions will be considered for publication in EX/POST’s regular issues. 

 

Applications will be open from September 1 to October 1. To submit, please email expostmag@gmail.com and put “MICROGRANT_{FIRST & LAST NAME}” in the subject line. In your email, we ask you to include the following: 

 

1. Tell us about yourself and who you are as an artist. (max 300 words)

 

2. What are you working on? How will this microgrant support you? (max 300 words)

​

3. Attach a portfolio of your work. Up to half of it may be previously published work. Choose one option below—you do NOT have to submit all four.

 

NOTE: The below guidelines are loose; if you work in multiple genres or mediums, feel free to mix and match your work to form a portfolio that most accurately represents yourself.

 

- 3-5 poems

-1-3 works of fiction or nonfiction (under 7,000 words in total)

- 2 one-act plays under 10 pages each

- 5 pieces of art
