 Call for Short Term Visiting Artist/Scholar/Curator Diversity Fellowships at Auburn University ($3,000-$4,000)

The Department of Art & Art History at Auburn University is pleased to offer short-term visiting artist/scholar/curator opportunities for spring 2023, fall 2023, and spring 2024. Successful candidates will demonstrate how their research / project contributes to the diversity of voices and perspectives in the candidate’s discipline. One fellow each semester will spend 2–3 weeks on the Auburn University campus working on a creative and/or scholarly project. During the visit, artists/curators will undertake an exhibition installation at Biggin Gallery, while scholars will complete research at Auburn University collections, such as Special Collections and the Jule Collins Smith Museum, or in other regional, off-campus resources. The Visiting Artist/Scholar/Curator will also visit classes in the Department of Art & Art History and give a public lecture while in residence.

Funding: $3000 for a 2-week fellowship or $4000 for a 3-week fellowship. These stipends are inclusive of fellowship expenses, meaning recipients will cover their travel, lodging, food, and other expenses out of this stipend. Fellows can apply for discounted area lodging near campus and may have access to short-term studio and/or office space and equipment, depending on their needs.

  Applications should include: 

 ·      a 1-2 page proposal of the research or creative project envisioned for the 2–3 week fellowship period, including how the project 1) fits into the candidate’s larger research trajectory and 2) contributes to the diversity of voices and perspectives in the candidate’s discipline
