The Mastheads
There are presently no open calls for submissions.
The Mastheads is a writers residency and public humanities project in Pittsfield, Massachusetts. We seek to support the production of new creative work, connect residents to the literary history of the region, and create a forum for thinking about place.
Founded in 2016 upon the legacy of five American Renaissance authors who wrote in Pittsfield, The Mastheads is at once an urban architectural experiment, a literary research initiative, a writers’ residency, and an educational program.
Our projects include 5 mobile writing studios, a writers' residency, a public lecture series, educational programming, publication, and design.
