The Smithsonian American Art Museum (SAAM) and its Renwick Gallery invite applications for research fellowships in the art and visual culture of the United States. Fellowships are residential and support full-time independent and dissertation research. SAAM is home to one of the largest and most inclusive collections of American art in the world.

The stipend for Smithsonian Institution Fellowships is $36,000 at the predoctoral level and $50,400 at the postdoctoral and senior levels, with an allowance of up to $4,000 available for short research trips. Senior-level recipients of the Terra Foundation Fellowships at SAAM are eligible for an augmented stipend of $60,000 for the full year.

The standard residency is twelve months, but shorter terms are available with prorated stipends. All appointments should take place between June 1, 2019, and August 31, 2020. The Smithsonian Office of International Relations will assist with arranging J-1 exchange visas for awardees who require them.

All candidates should apply to the Smithsonian Institution Fellowship Program (SIFP).  Only one application is necessary. A link to the SIFP application portal can be found on our website at AmericanArt.si.edu/fellowships. The deadline is November 1, 2018.
