What We Offer

Workshops

Brooklyn Poets Fellowships

We award fellowships to promising students in need to enroll in one of our workshops for free. We also offer partial fellowship awards to finalists and semifinalists. Since the inception of our fellowship program in the fall of 2015, we’ve awarded 230 full fellowships and offered 197 partial awards to students from historically underserved communities to enroll in our workshops and retreats for free or at reduced cost. All together these students have saved over $109,000 in tuition.

We strongly encourage writers from historically underserved and marginalized communities to apply, including (but not limited to) writers of color, LGBTQ+ writers, writers with disabilities and women writers. Applications for fellowships for winter-spring 2025 workshops closed on January 26 (11:59 PM ET).
