Undocupoets was co-founded in 2015 by Marcelo Hernandez Castillo, Javier Zamora, and Christopher Soto. Today, it is co-organized by Marcelo, along with Janine Joseph, and Esther Lin. This year, UndocuPoets is partnering with the Fine Arts Work Center to provide fellowships to poets who identify as currently or formerly undocumented in the United States. Fellowships include: “a scholarship from the Fine Arts Work Center to attend the 2025 Summer Workshop Program in Provincetown, MA. The dates of their classes run from June 15 to August 16, 2025. The scholarship covers the cost of tuition and housing for a one-week residency, as well as a $500 stipend to help cover transportation and food costs.”

The deadline to apply is February 14, 2025 at 11:59pm EST
