AWARD: 2018 SAH / Mellon Author Awards

Award: 2018 SAH / Mellon Author Awards

The Society of Architectural Historians is now accepting applications for the 2018 SAH/Mellon Author Awards. Funded by a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation and administered by SAH, the award is designed to provide financial relief to scholars who are publishing their first monograph on the history of the built environment. The purpose of the award is to help defray the high costs of image licensing, reproductions and creation of original drawings and maps for monographs on the history of the built environment.
The application deadline is 31 May 2018. Successful applicants will be first-time book authors who are under contract with a publisher for a manuscript on the history of the built environment.
