About the Award

The Wonderland Award is an annual multidisciplinary competition that encourages new scholarship and creative work related to Lewis Carroll (1832-1898). The award was established in 2004 with the sponsorship of Linda Cassady.

The first award was made in the spring of 2005; speaking at that event was the great-granddaughter of Alice [Liddell], Vanessa St. Clair. Since then, there have been almost 250 student submissions and the success of the program prompted USC to open the competition to students from other Southern California colleges and universities for the 2011 award. With continued sponsorship of Linda Cassady and strong support from the USC Libraries, it is planned that the eighth annual Wonderland Award in 2012 will be open to students from all schools in California.

Scope and Contents

The collection includes paintings, essays, stories, sculptures, video presentations, games, scrapbooks, a quilt, and many other types of assemblages based on Lewis Carroll and his creations, especially Alice.

Acquisition

Since the beginning of the award contest in 2005, all award submissions became part of the G. Edward Cassady, M.D. and Margaret Elizabeth Cassady, R.N. Lewis Carroll Collection of the USC Libraries. To avoid confusion with the Lewis Carroll collection bequeathed to USC by George Cassady, the Wonderland Award projects were removed from that collection and assigned their own separate collection title and number. Each year, the contest submissions are added to this collection following the award ceremony in the spring.
