The Montez Press Writers Grant is a direct response to the unprecedented financial crisis caused by the pandemic. This grant exists to support artists and writers who lost income due to Covid-19, or who perhaps never had any to begin with. We have worked closely with the recipients to develop their new works, of which we are extremely proud and excited to share. We’d like to thank all the artists and writers involved for their time, commitment and energy.

You can find all the online PDFs of the works on our website:
