Furthermore grants assist nonfiction books having to do with art, architecture, and design; cultural history, the city, and related public issues; and conservation and preservation. We look for work that appeals to an informed general audience, gives evidence of high standards in writing, design, and production, and promises a reasonable shelf life.
Preference is given to book projects that have a university press, nonprofit or trade publisher already committed and a feasible distribution plan in place. Recipients of Furthermore grants are located throughout the U.S. and occasionally abroad; please note that we are only able to consider books published in English.
