The Georgia Review is pleased to announce it has been approved by the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) for a Grants for Arts Projects award of $12,500. This grant will support publication of issues of The Georgia Review. The NEA awarded 1,127 Grants for Arts Projects awards nationwide, totaling more than $31.8 million as part of the recent announcement of fiscal year 2025 grants.
“The NEA is proud to continue our nearly 60 years of supporting the efforts of organizations and artists that help to shape our country’s vibrant arts sector and communities of all types across our nation,” said NEA Chair Maria Rosario Jackson, PhD.
“I'm grateful for the NEA’s continued support,” added Georgia Review director and editor Gerald Maa. “We are a non-profit run by a small, tight-knit office. It's such an honor for the NEA to recognize and support us.”
The Georgia Review, which is based at the University of Georgia Main Library, maintains high pay rates for publication in literary journals. The national award-winning publication has a reputation for literary excellence as well as the quality of its bound volumes, always with glossy, full-color folios of art and often with literary work that requires design expertise for effective presentation. Support from the NEA and from our readers will help to fulfill its mission of sharing excellent writing from authors in all stages of their careers.
