Cy Twombly Award for Poetry

This annual grant is supported by a multi-year gift from the Cy Twombly Foundation in memory of the artist, who was one of FCA's earliest supporters and who was influenced and inspired by poetry throughout his lifetime. The $45,000 unrestricted award is made annually through the Grants to Artists program to support a poet.

The Cy Twombly Award for Poetry is administered by a confidential nomination and selection process. Applications and unsolicited nominations are not accepted.
