In
1996 the W. Eugene Smith Memorial Fund announced a new award, the
Howard Chapnick Grant, to encourage and support leadership in fields
ancillary to photojournalism, such as editing, research, education
and management. The Grant was established to honor the memory of
Howard Chapnick, and acknowledge the value of his enormous contribution
to photography. The annual $5,000 grant may be used to finance any
of a range of qualified undertakings, which might include a program
of further education, research, a special long-term sabbatical project,
or an internship to work with a noteworthy group or individual.
According to the Fund's Board of Trustees, special consideration
will be given to projects that promote social change and/or serve
significant concerns of photojournalism. The grant is not intended
to be used for the production of photographs, which will continue
to be funded by the main grant of the Smith Fund.
Deadline
for receipt of applications is July 15 of each year.
