We believe that the literary arts are an essential foundation of humanity because we know that writing—from the three-minute freewrite to the published book—is an essential way to share the human condition, and enables individuals to get in touch with their deeper selves.
The literary arts are essential, and we never want cost to be a deterrent from participating in our programs, from workshops to weekend fests to events. There are a few ways we can help remove cost as a barrier, including tuition assistance, payment plans, and fellowships. Explore all options below.
Tuition Assistance
Apply for tuition assistance to have a percentage of your tuition covered by Lighthouse. Make sure to apply early to increase your chances.
Payment Plans

Fellowships
For certain programs, like The Book Project, Lit Fest, Writing for Veterans, and Writing in Color, we offer awards and fellowships, giving talented writers the opportunity to participate without the burden of cost.
