The USC Annenberg School for Communication and The Getty Foundation are
pleased to announce the 7th annual USC Annenberg/Getty Arts Journalism
Fellowship. Formerly held during the spring, the program for 2008 will
be offered in the fall (November 1 to 22), in order to coincide with
USC`s academic year and take advantage of the resources available
through the University, including its new Master`s Program in arts
journalism.
Six to seven arts journalists who bring distinction to the field will be
chosen from the applicant pool. This is an international program for
mid-career arts editors, critics and reporters from print, radio,
television and online who cover the performing and visual arts,
architecture, literature, entertainment and pop culture. They can be
generalists or specialists. Staff writers, editors and freelancers and
self-employed Web journalists alike are welcome to apply.
Based in Los Angeles, the fellowship is a total immersion experience
that includes attending as many as 23 performances, art exhibitions and

rooms, architectural firms and art schools providing many
behind-the-scene opportunities to meet renowned artists, arts
administrators and accomplished journalists face-to-face.
