The Hengshan Calligraphy Art Center (HCAC) in Taiwan launches the open call for the 3rd Hengshan Calligraphy Research Award for calligraphy art development in Asia. This year the Award accepts multilingual and published papers on calligraphy and will subsidize the awardees to attend the ceremony, fostering global engagement in calligraphy research.
The Award follows a dual-track system, incorporating both a nomination committee and an open call for submissions. The awardee of the Grand Prize will receive TWD 150,000 (HKD 36,000), while each Merit Awardee will receive TWD 30,000 (HKD 7,200). Through this initiative, the HCAC aims to attract high-quality research from around the world, encouraging participation and dialogue among calligraphy researchers.
In order to broaden the scope of research exchange, submissions are accepted in Chinese, English, and Japanese. Research papers written or published between January 1, 2021, and April 30, 2025, are eligible; authors of published works must provide proof of authorization from the original publisher. Additionally, a travel subsidy will be offered to awardees to attend the award ceremony, with international participants receiving additional funding to cover round-trip airfare.
