"I picked a word of the year, and this year it was faith... faith that I am on the right path as an artist and I need to continue to write and write no matter what because this is what I love doing more than anything. This grant is proof to me that I have to keep going, keep creating" - Veronica Mansour

The Jonathan Larson Grant is an unconditional annual investment in individual talent. The grant is awarded to musical theatre composers, lyricists, and librettists, or writing teams, early in their career, to support artistic endeavors and safeguard long-term music writing careers.
