Dear all,

I am excited to announce that the 2023 Curationist Fellows Program and Critics of Color Residency Applications are now open!

As part of our mission to reimagine culture through a social-justice lens, Curationist is proud to announce two upcoming opportunities that provide direct support for research and writing on our platform: the 2023 Critics of Color Residency and the Curationist Fellowship. Applications for both programs are now open until February 1. 

The Curationist Fellows Program supports community-based researchers, librarians, graduate students, and university educators in incorporating cultural heritage resources into their existing work. We especially encourage applicants from communities underrepresented in the arts and culture field and applicants whose work may lack the funding associated with large institutional settings.

The Critics of Color Residency supports writers of color interested in arts and cultural criticism. Participants will draw on the Curationist archive and work with Curationist editors and archivists to publish writing on our site. This residency is an exciting opportunity for early to mid-career writers to engage with digital collections and to have their voices expand and diversify cultural discourse. The fellowship is generously supported by Critical Minded

Residents and fellows may be based anywhere in the world. Each fellow or resident will be awarded a 3,000 USD stipend over six months, and will spend approximately 15 hours per month on remote research, writing, and workshops. Full application details are available by clicking on the links below.

For questions about the Critics of Color Residency or Curationist Fellowship, please email curationist@mhzfoundation.org.
