Since 1994, the University of Arizona Poetry Center’s Residency Program has offered emerging poets, fiction and non-fiction writers an opportunity to develop their work. The Poetry Center awards two residencies each summer to one poet and one prose writer to spend two to four weeks in Tucson, Arizona developing his/her work. Writers at any stage of their careers may apply; emerging writers are welcome. The residency includes a $150 stipend per week and a two-to-four-week stay in a studio apartment located within steps of the Center’s renowned library of contemporary poetry. The residency is offered between June 1 and August 31.
