Turkey Land Cove Foundation has launched its Grant Program and is offering a working residency for motivated woman to pursue their professional, educational and/or artistic goals away from the distractions of daily life.
Turkey Land Cove (TLC) provides a quiet home on Martha’s Vineyard to achieve progress towards a defined goal, complete a project, and/or develop tools to propel women’s lives in a new direction.
The concept of Turkey Land Cove Foundation began in 1994 ago when its founder began offering space to women in various stages of transition. One woman needed time and space to reflect on a major career change. Another was ready to finish her book.
All the women benefited from the breathtaking setting, the solitude of the space, and the founder’s welcoming hospitality. The decision was made in 2010 to establish a formal organization to carry out this needed service for women. Turkey Land Cove Foundation welcomed the first grantee in 2010, and by 2017 they celebrated the 100th woman to complete a residency.
Benefits
- The grants cover room and board plus reasonable transportation expenses.
- Based on individual circumstances, stipends will be considered to help fund some travel expenses, as well as material expenses critical to the success of the grant project.
Eligibility Criteria
- Grants will be considered for women with valid U.S. citizenship, at least 21 years of age.
- There is no set parameter for the scope of work of their grantees, only that they have clearly defined and reasonable goals, and able to use the time and space to progress towards those goals.
- Turkey Land Cove Foundation (TLC) is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization committed to providing working residencies to women.
