Delaware's Unique Historical Research Landscape: Priority Outcomes for Creative Fellows. The Delaware grant for creative and performing artists and writers offers visiting fellowships for historical research, with a focus on pre-twentieth-century American history, literature, and culture. As the state aims to promote imaginative works for the general public, the priority outcomes for this grant are centered around producing high-quality, engaging content that showcases the rich history and cultural heritage of Delaware and the surrounding region. The Delaware State Historic Preservation Office, a key partner in this initiative, works closely with the funder, a non-profit organization, to ensure that the research produced is accurate, informative, and accessible to a broad audience. Delaware's distinct historical landscape, with its colonial past and strategic location along the Eastern Seaboard, provides a unique backdrop for fellows to explore and interpret the state's and the nation's history.

Successful applicants will be expected to produce work that not only advances the field of historical research but also resonates with the general public, making the past relevant to contemporary issues and concerns. In terms of specific outcomes, the funder is looking for projects that demonstrate a deep understanding of the historical context, incorporate innovative and creative approaches to storytelling, and have the potential to engage a broad audience.
