M. A. Riggle
Literary Artist
2025 Artist Enrichment Grant | (Goshen) $3,000 to support her ability to focus time away from paid work to write and complete a publishable manuscript of poems. Rooted in feminist commitments to equality and care, her work explores gender, motherhood, our bond with nature, and the intersection of the sacred with the mundane. This concentrated period of writing and revision will allow her to deepen her craft, finish a manuscript, and amplify feminist perspectives to foster empathy and social change.
