Fez Art Residency

Host your Residency in Fez Morocco Deadline: 01 Sep 2026 Country: Morocco Few places inspire like Fez — more than a city, it’s an open-air studio. For over a thousand years, the Medina has been a place where ideas are shaped in wood, clay, metal, and cloth. Today, this UNESCO-protected labyrinth offers you the chance to be part of that living story — surrounded by the clang of coppersmiths’ hammers, the rhythm of weaving looms, and the vivid colours and scents of the souks. Your Vision. Our Setting. Fez Art Residency invites artists, writers, and cultural practitioners to host their own retreat here in the heart of the Medina. You bring the concept and your community; we provide the accommodation, logistics, and local support to make it happen. Whether you’re a painter, photographer, textile artist, or interdisciplinary creator, this is your chance to share your practice, connect more deeply with your audience, and earn from your creativity in a truly magical setting. Imagine guiding your guests through the winding alleys, pausing to meet artisans at work, and letting the atmosphere of Fez become part of the experience. By hosting here, you’ll not only strengthen bonds with your audience and gain fresh inspiration from centuries-old traditions and architecture, but also expand your network, enhance your reputation as a creative leader, and create memories your guests will treasure long after they return home. Duration of residency Our hosted retreats usually run for 5 to 10 days, with a week being the most common format. This length gives participants plenty of time to settle in, explore, and immerse themselves in both the retreat activities and the cultural richness of Fez.   That said, the exact duration is entirely up to you – whether you’d like to design a shorter, more intensive experience or a longer retreat that allows for deeper reflection, we’ll help shape the programme around your goals and vision. Accommodation Our retreats are hosted at Dar Drouj, a historic dar conveniently located in a local neighbourhood on the edge of Fez Medina. Designed with creatives in mind, it offers the perfect balance: close to all the major sites, yet peaceful and away from the crowds, with easy access to transport links. The house features five spacious ensuite bedrooms that can comfortably host up to 10 guests, with options for shared or private rooms to suit your retreat needs. Guests enjoy reliable Wi-Fi, fresh bedding, daily essentials, and the flavours of traditional Moroccan cuisine. At the heart of the dar, a tranquil courtyard and rooftop terrace provide welcoming spaces for relaxation, conversation, and gathering — the perfect setting to unwind, reflect, and connect after a day of creativity in the Medina. Disciplines, work equipment and assistance We welcome a wide range of creative disciplines - from painting, drawing, photography, and textile arts to writing, interdisciplinary practices, and beyond. Whether you’re leading hands-on workshops, reflective writing sessions, or collaborative projects, Fez provides the perfect backdrop for your retreat. Our team is on-hand to assist with the practical side of things so you can focus on your vision. We can help source materials locally, arrange studio space when needed, and connect you with traditional artisans for cultural workshops or demonstrations. Optional add-ons might include guided excursions, translation support, and photography or video documentation of your retreat.Studio / Workspace Creativity finds its home on the rooftop of Dar Drouj, where the light is soft, the air is open, and the views stretch across the rooftops of the Medina. This airy, inspiring space is well-suited to a wide range of artistic practices - from painting and drawing to writing, movement, and collaborative workshops. With the sounds of the city below and the sky above, the rooftop studio offers an atmosphere that encourages focus, experimentation, and connection.Fees and support We offer several flexible models to ensure your retreat in Fez is not only inspiring but also financially rewarding. Whether you prefer full independence, shared security, or a customised approach, we’ll work with you to create a structure that best fits your goals. Our aim is to make hosting in Fez both creatively fulfilling and financially sustainable, so you can focus on delivering an unforgettable experience. Flat Fee Model You pay a flat fee to cover retreat costs (accommodation, logistics). You keep 100% of participant income. Example: - Retreat costs: €2,000 - 6 participants at €800 = €4,800 - Your earnings: €2,800 Best for experienced retreat leaders with confident audience outreach. Revenue Share Model We split participant income after basic costs, sharing both risk and reward. Example: - Participant fee: €900 × 6 = €5,400 - Base costs: €2,000 - Profit split: 70% to you, 30% to us - Your earnings: €2,380 Best for newer retreat leaders or those wanting less upfront risk. Custom Model For hybrid setups, artist residencies, or co-branded experiences, we’ll design a model that works best for you. This could include partnerships with other artists, institutions, or cultural organisations — strengthening networks and building lasting collaborations. Expectations towards the artist It All Begins With YouYour retreat starts with your practice, your story, and the way you want to share it. Your creative direction shapes everything — from the theme and focus to the rhythm of each day — creating an experience that is uniquely yours. Your CommunityYour community is your greatest asset, and hosting a retreat is an opportunity to bring them closer. By inviting loyal fans, followers, collectors, and like-minded peers, you’ll create a gathering of people excited to learn from you and immerse themselves in your creative world. You can host: - Solo: 6–8 guests is ideal, but Dar Drouj can accommodate up to 10. - With a co-leader: Share responsibilities and split income while creating a richer, collaborative experience. Your PromotionNo one can tell your story better than you. Through your own platforms and voice, you’ll share the vision of your retreat, inspire people to join you in Fez, and set the tone for the journey they’ll take alongside you. You’re responsible for: - Promoting your retreat through your channels - Sharing visuals, stories, and your Fez connection - Managing participant interest and communication We’ll support you with: - Promo materials, photos, and example copy - A retreat listing on our website (optional) Application information For more information and to share your idea with us, please visit Host Your Retreat in Fez

The guide analyzes how jurors are likely to evaluate the proposal, image PDF, and supporting materials together, what the gallery’s emphasis on collaboration, experimentation, public programming, and DEIA+ goals suggests about its priorities, and how applicants can strengthen the relationship between their exhibition concept and every required application component. About the Opportunity Founded in 1979, PS122 Gallery is one of New York City’s longest-running nonprofit alternative exhibition spaces dedicated to fostering and developing the work of emerging and under-recognized artists. Operating as an ongoing program of Painting Space 122, the gallery has played a significant role in the city’s contemporary art community by presenting interdisciplinary exhibitions and providing early opportunities for artists and curators who later became influential figures in contemporary art. The Exhibition Open Call helped launch exhibitions by artists including Keith Haring, Peter Halley, Amy Sillman, and many others, reinforcing the gallery’s long-standing commitment to discovering new voices and supporting experimental artistic practices. The annual Exhibition Open Call, first introduced during the 1986-87 season and revived in 2023, continues that mission by inviting curators, artist-led initiatives, and collectives to develop original exhibitions for the 2027 season. Rather than selecting individual artists, PS122 Gallery is seeking fully conceived exhibition proposals that demonstrate a clear curatorial vision and meaningful relationships between participating artists. Six projects will be selected by a jury of arts professionals and presented as month-long exhibitions in the gallery’s approximately 1,000-square-foot space. The opportunity welcomes artists working in any medium and encourages experimental approaches to exhibition making alongside public programs with an aesthetic component. What Is Offered - One of six month-long exhibitions during the 2027 season - Exhibition at PS122 Gallery in New York City’s East Village - Approximately 1,000-square-foot gallery space - Opportunity for curator-led and artist-led exhibitions - Applications from collectives are encouraged - Experimental exhibition formats are welcomed - Public programs with an aesthetic component are encouraged - Exhibition within a historic nonprofit alternative art space Who Should Apply The PS122 Gallery 2027 Exhibition Open Call is intended for curators, artist-led initiatives, and collectives that want to present a collaborative exhibition rather than a solo presentation. Applicants should already have confirmed participation from at least two artists before submitting, as artist names are required in the application. The opportunity is particularly well suited to emerging and mid-career curators developing new exhibition models, artist collectives exploring shared research or interdisciplinary practice, and artists interested in presenting work within a broader curatorial framework. Because either the curator or participating artists must reside within one of New York City’s five boroughs, the program is focused on supporting and strengthening the city’s artistic community while remaining open to projects working across all media. Timeline - Applications Open: July 1, 2026 - Application Deadline: September 1, 2026, at 11:59 pm EST - Notification: October 2026 - Exhibition Dates: February, March, April, June, September, and October 2027 Why This Opportunity Matters PS122 Gallery has played an important role in New York City’s contemporary art community for more than four decades by providing early exhibition opportunities to emerging artists and curators while supporting ambitious, experimental work. The Exhibition Open Call continues that legacy by creating an accessible pathway into one of the city’s most respected nonprofit alternative exhibition spaces. Unlike opportunities focused on individual artists, this call rewards thoughtful collaboration, strong curatorial vision, and well-developed exhibition concepts. For curators, artist-led teams, and collectives looking to expand their exhibition practice, the program offers the opportunity to realize a complete project within an institution known for championing new ideas and supporting artists throughout their careers.

Contemporary Performance members receive Strategy Coach Notes that examine reviewer priorities, application structure, and practical approaches to preparing a stronger submission. About the Funded Artist Residency Iceland The National Gallery of Iceland developed this residency through CUSP: Creative Understanding, Saving and Preserving Time-Based Media Art, a Creative Europe cooperation project dedicated to advancing the preservation of time-based media artworks. The initiative brings together museums and cultural organizations from Iceland, Ukraine, the Czech Republic, Norway, and the Netherlands to examine how contemporary artworks dependent on changing technologies can be documented, maintained, and preserved for the future. Rather than emphasizing production alone, the residency places preservation research at the center of the experience. During the residency, the selected artist will work with museum staff and a specialist in time-based media conservation to discuss the conceptual, technical, and practical requirements of preserving their work. These conversations contribute to the broader objectives of the CUSP project while helping artists reflect on the long-term life of their practice. The residency concludes with a public Open Lab workshop or masterclass developed in collaboration with the National Gallery, creating an opportunity to share artistic methods and research with local audiences. What Is Offered The residency combines research, professional exchange, and public programming rather than focusing solely on studio production. The selected artist will spend up to four weeks in Reykjavík working with specialists whose expertise centers on the preservation of time-based media art. The program provides practical support for the residency while creating opportunities to discuss artistic processes, technical requirements, and long-term conservation strategies. The National Gallery of Iceland lists the following support: - Accommodation for the duration of the residency - Working space throughout the residency - Travel and subsistence stipend - Artist fee for participation in the Open Lab - Meetings with a preservation specialist or conservator specializing in time-based media art - Public Open Lab workshop or masterclass developed with the museum - Possible access to hardware and software depending on project requirements and institutional resources Who Should Apply to The Funded Artist Residency Iceland This residency is intended for artists whose work raises questions about the preservation of contemporary media practices.

Applicants should also be comfortable discussing their work publicly. Every resident is expected to contribute an Open Lab workshop or masterclass that introduces audiences to their artistic methods and research. The strongest applications will demonstrate a thoughtful relationship between artistic practice, technological process, and public engagement. Funded Artist Residency Iceland Timeline Application Deadline: 3 September 2026, 23:59 GMT Residency: Up to four weeks during early 2027. Final dates will be arranged with the selected artist. Why The Funded Artist Residency Iceland Matters Many artist residencies provide time and space to develop new work. This residency offers something less common by placing artists in direct conversation with professionals responsible for preserving contemporary media art. As digital technologies continue to evolve, artists increasingly face questions about software obsolescence, changing hardware, documentation, and the long-term accessibility of their work. The residency creates an opportunity to examine these issues alongside museum specialists while contributing to an international research initiative supported through Creative Europe. For artists whose practice depends on technology, these conversations can influence future production methods, documentation strategies, and exhibition planning. The residency also provides a public platform through the Open Lab while connecting participants to an international network of institutions working with time-based media art.

Applicants are asked to demonstrate how their existing practice contributes to an ongoing institutional conversation instead of proposing a stand-alone residency project.

Members of the Contemporary Performance Network can access the full Strategy Coach Notes, including a detailed breakdown of the application materials, reviewer priorities, portfolio strategy, motivation letter structure, and practical guidance for positioning research within this fellowship’s collaborative model. About the Opportunity Scuola Piccola Zattere is an independent non-profit center for continuous education and research working across the expanded field of contemporary arts. Its activities combine exhibitions, commissions, fellowships, workshops, seminars, performances, and public discussions into a single research ecosystem. Rather than separating artistic production from education or public engagement, the institution encourages these activities to inform one another throughout each season. The 2026-2027 research cycle is titled Living Document. The program investigates archives, regulatory documents, collective rituals, games, performative instructions, and the relationship between bodies, architecture, and social organization. Fellows become part of this shared inquiry while continuing their own independent artistic or research practice. They are expected to maintain an active presence within the institution, exchange ideas with fellow practitioners, and contribute to public events through formats such as workshops, seminars, presentations, screenings, or performances. The fellowship coincides with an especially active period in Venice. Participants may be in residence immediately before or during the 2027 Architecture Biennale, creating opportunities to engage with the city’s international cultural community while developing their own long-term research. What Is Offered - Three-month international fellowship in Venice. - Individual study space within a shared studio at Scuola Piccola Zattere. - Fellowship grant of €5,000. - Dedicated research budget of €2,000. - Accommodation in Venice. - Round-trip travel to Venice. - Integration into the institution’s artistic and research community. - Opportunities to present research through workshops, lectures, screenings, performances, seminars, or other public formats. - Access to mentorship, interdisciplinary exchange, and ongoing institutional programming. Who Should Apply This fellowship is intended for artists and cultural practitioners whose work is grounded in sustained research and who are interested in contributing to a collaborative intellectual environment. The call welcomes practitioners working across disciplines and places particular emphasis on dialogue, exchange, and public engagement. While there is no age limit, the organizers note that the fellowship is especially intended for practitioners in the post-academic stage of their careers, typically under the age of 40. Applicants should be prepared to spend the full fellowship period in Venice, actively participate in the life of Scuola Piccola Zattere, and share aspects of their research through public programming. Rather than presenting a finished project, successful applicants will demonstrate an active research process that can develop through discussion, experimentation, and interaction with the institution’s community. This opportunity is open to: - Artists - Curators - Researchers - Architects - Choreographers - Performers - Writers - Individual practitioners - Collectives and duos (sharing the same grant and accommodation) - Applicants of any nationality - Non-EU applicants with a valid passport for international travel - Applicants with a good knowledge of English Timeline Application Deadline: September 4, 2026, 10:00 AM CEST Fellowship Slot One: Early January to early April 2027 Fellowship Slot Two: Mid-April to mid-July 2027 Applicants may apply for either fellowship period or indicate availability for both. Why This Opportunity Matters Many fellowships support research by providing time and space. Scuola Piccola Zattere extends that model by embedding fellows within an ongoing institutional research program that unfolds across exhibitions, seminars, commissions, residencies, performances, and public conversations. Fellows are expected to contribute to this evolving dialogue while advancing their own practice. The structure is particularly valuable for artists working across disciplines or developing research that benefits from sustained exchange rather than isolated studio production. The combination of a €5,000 fellowship grant, a dedicated €2,000 research budget, accommodation, travel support, and three months in Venice creates substantial support for focused artistic and intellectual development. Its timing alongside the 2027 Architecture Biennale also places fellows within one of the world’s most active international cultural contexts. OF THE FIELD.

Open Call | 2nd Session R.A.R.O. Buenos Aires 2026 Deadline: 04 Sep 2026 Country: Argentina R.A.R.O. (Residencias Artísticas Raramente Organizadas) is an international residency program for artists born from the need to generate links and exchanges. In these residencies, we contemplate production and artistic reflection in relation to multidisciplinary synergies and collaborations. We are a decentralized and self-managed program operating through a training and support network made up of more than 25 local artist studios ready to receive others in their spaces. Our dynamic is primarily itinerant and relational. Since 2014, we have opened our doors in Buenos Aires, a city where we have hosted more than 300 residents and where we have generated different scholarship programs for both Argentine and foreign artists, developing agreements with various institutions and contributing to the strengthening of production and exchange between disciplines. Since 2024, we inaugurated our program in Bogotá. The key element of the residencies we propose is the possibility of working with different artists, curators, managers, and researchers in an itinerant manner during a specific time; this is essential for generating spaces for dialogue and collaboration between participants and hosts. In parallel with the work processes in each space, we generate an agenda of activities such as studio visits, talks, and clinics, among others, which are complementary and enrich the experience of each resident, allowing them to relate to different spaces and actors according to the nature of their own projects. Duration of residency We invite artists, managers, curators, and other interested parties from Argentina and all nationalities to apply for the 2nd Session R.A.R.O. Buenos Aires 2026, which is open until September 4, 2026. The R.A.R.O.

Furthermore, the call extends to curators, cultural and social managers, human rights defenders, and anyone interested in developing projects linked to art and culture.   This residency format consists of a period of six (6) weeks. Within this timeframe, four (4) weeks are dedicated to working in the selected studios. There, residents will be able to develop their processes, connect with other artists in the program, and meet the local artists working in each space. Subsequently, the residency will conclude with a one (1) week final exhibition. During this week, and alongside a mounting team and the edition’s curator, each resident will receive the necessary support so the group can exhibit the processes they worked on during the program. Additionally, residents will have curatorial meetings, workshops, and advisory sessions from the R.A.R.O. Team, as well as tours and visits through the city’s artistic circuit and group photographic documentation. Format: Macro-Residency Dates: From October 8 to November 15. Grants: One (1) full grant is available for artists of any nationality. Application Deadline: September 4, 2026 Accommodation We offer various accommodation options for our residents. From hostels and shared rooms to private apartments or private rooms in local artists’ homes. Everything depends on the resident’s budget and needs. Disciplines, work equipment and assistance With 25 studios to choose from, R.A.R.O. residencies cover a wide range of techniques with all types of equipment and provide full assistance at all times.Studio / Workspace The key element of R.A.R.O.'s Itinerant Residencies is the opportunity to create, collaborate, and explore diverse artistic spaces during the residency. The multidisciplinary nature of R.A.R.O. allows residents to work in two or more workshops within our network.Fees and support Residencies have an associated cost. The cost varies depending on the chosen workshops and the duration of the stay. We offer 1 (one) full grant for artists of any nationality, granted by R.A.R.O.

Two selected projects will each receive a €6,000 commission, production support, travel to Berlin, and accommodation during the festival period. The commissioned works will premiere during CTM Festival 2027 in Berlin before being developed into a radio work for Deutschlandfunk Kultur. Applications close September 6, 2026, at 23:59 (UTC+2). OF THE FIELD. CTM Festival Open Call Snapshot What: In Listening 2027 is an open call for two newly commissioned hybrid works that combine a live presentation with an original radio production. Projects must be grounded in experimental sound practices and audio art and respond to the CTM Festival 2027 theme, Process…ing. Who: Artists working with experimental sound practices and audio art.

Award / Support: Two commission fees of €6,000 each; technical and staging costs for the CTM presentation following discussion with CTM; technical and staging costs for a possible presentation at ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst following discussion with the organizer; possible radio production support from Deutschlandfunk Kultur, including translation, voiceover, and recording studio costs following discussion; travel to Berlin; accommodation during the production and festival period; production support and counseling from CTM Festival and Deutschlandfunk Kultur. Application Fee: FREE Deadline: September 6, 2026, 23:59 (UTC+2, Berlin Time) Official Link: https://www.ctm-festival.de/festival-2027/open-calls/in-listening-2027 Strategy Coach Notes: https://www.patreon.com/pformart/posts/ctm-festival-000-166036415 Get the Application Strategy The In Listening 2027 commission asks applicants to develop a project that functions successfully in two distinct formats: a live presentation and an original radio work. Successful applications will demonstrate a clear artistic concept, an understanding of listening as the central medium, and a realistic production plan that aligns with the technical framework described in the call. Practitioner Members receive Strategy Coach Notes that examine the application materials, production requirements, reviewer priorities, and practical strategies for developing a competitive proposal. About the CTM Festival Open Call The In Listening 2027 commission expands on the long-running collaboration between CTM Festival, Deutschlandfunk Kultur, and ORF to support new work that exists in two distinct forms: a live presentation and an original radio production. Rather than asking artists to adapt an existing project, the call invites proposals conceived from the beginning as hybrid works. Applicants are expected to consider how listening changes across physical and broadcast environments and how each format can become its own artistic experience. The selected works will premiere during CTM Festival 2027 in Berlin before continuing as radio productions for broadcast through Deutschlandfunk Kultur and presentation through ORF platforms. The 2027 edition is organized around the festival theme, Process…ing, which examines movement, transformation, and systems through sound. The call asks artists to engage directly with this theme while remaining grounded in experimental sound practices and audio art. Sound must function as the primary artistic medium. Live presentations are designed for a shared listening experience within the Kuppelhalle at silent green, where audiences sit around the performers inside a 6.1-channel loudspeaker configuration. The accompanying radio work should not function as documentation of the live presentation. It should instead be developed as an independent work that takes advantage of the possibilities offered by broadcast listening. What Is Offered - Two commission fees of €6,000 each - World premiere during CTM Festival 2027 - Technical and staging costs for the CTM presentation, following discussion with CTM - Technical and staging costs for a possible presentation at ORF musikprotokoll im steirischen herbst, following discussion with the organizer - Possible production support from Deutschlandfunk Kultur, including translation, voiceover, and recording studio costs, following discussion - Travel expenses to Berlin - Accommodation during the production and festival period - Production support, counseling, and assistance from CTM Festival and Deutschlandfunk Kultur - Broadcast through Deutschlandfunk Kultur’s Klangkunst program - Presentation through one or more ORF platforms - Online streaming through Deutschlandfunk and ORF platforms for at least one year Who Should Apply This opportunity is intended for artists whose practice is rooted in experimental sound and audio art. Individual artists, duos, and collaborative groups are eligible to apply. Projects should place sound at the center of the artistic experience and demonstrate how the proposal will function as a live event and as an original radio work. Applications must be submitted in English. Artists proposing collaborative projects should identify one primary contact for the application and develop a realistic production plan that reflects the available commission. CTM Festival Open Call Timeline Application Deadline: September 6, 2026, 23:59 (UTC+2, Berlin Time) Applicants Notified: Mid October 2026 Production Period: Late October 2026 through January 2027 CTM Festival 2027: January 22 to January 31, 2027 Deutschlandfunk Kultur Broadcast: Spring 2027 ORF Presentation: Autumn 2027 Why This Opportunity Matters Few international commissions ask artists to develop a project simultaneously for live presentation and radio broadcast. The structure encourages applicants to think beyond documentation and to consider how listening changes across different contexts. Artists selected for In Listening 2027 receive financial support together with production guidance from three established cultural organizations working across contemporary sound, experimental music, and radio. The opportunity offers time to develop a new work, present it within an international festival, and extend its reach through public broadcast and online distribution.

Applications close September 8, 2026. OF THE FIELD. Princeton Arts Fellowship Snapshot What: Two-year teaching fellowship for early-career artists at Princeton University. Who: Early-career artists working in architecture, dance, film, music, performance, theater, visual arts, creative writing, and related disciplines.

Deadline: September 8, 2026.

Every application demonstrates an applicant’s potential as an artist, educator, colleague, and member of Princeton’s intellectual community. The portfolio, teaching proposal, research plans, recommendation letters, and three required essays work together to answer those questions. Members of the Contemporary Performance Network receive Strategy Coach Notes that analyze each application question, explain what reviewers are evaluating, identify common mistakes, and provide practical guidance for building a stronger submission. About the Princeton Arts Fellowship The Princeton Arts Fellowship was established to support outstanding early-career artists whose creative practice and teaching have the potential to make significant contributions to the university community. Fellows become members of the Lewis Center for the Arts and spend two academic years developing new artistic work while teaching undergraduate students and participating in campus life. Rather than functioning as a traditional residency, the fellowship resembles an early-career faculty appointment. Fellows maintain active artistic practices while contributing to Princeton’s educational mission through teaching, advising, public events, and engagement with students and faculty. This combination of artistic development and academic participation distinguishes the fellowship from opportunities focused solely on studio practice or production. The program welcomes artists from a broad range of disciplines, including dance, theater, music, performance, film, architecture, visual arts, creative writing, and interdisciplinary practices. Fellows are selected for the quality of their artistic work, their potential as educators, and their ability to contribute meaningfully to Princeton’s creative and intellectual community. Because appointments last two academic years, the fellowship provides sustained support for artistic research, experimentation, teaching experience, and professional development. Fellows become part of a community of artists, scholars, and students while continuing to advance their own creative practice. What Is Offered - $93,000 annual salary - $5,000 annual research fund - $2,000 annual classroom expense fund - University employee benefits - Two academic years at Princeton University - Teaching experience with undergraduate students - Access to Princeton University facilities and resources - Participation in the Lewis Center for the Arts community - Professional development through teaching, research, and artistic practice Who Should Apply The Princeton Arts Fellowship is intended for exceptional early-career artists whose creative practice is already well established and who are ready to contribute to a university environment through teaching, mentorship, and artistic leadership. Princeton is not looking for applicants who simply need time to make work. The fellowship seeks artists who can sustain an active creative practice while engaging students through teaching and participating in the intellectual life of the Lewis Center for the Arts. Applicants should demonstrate a significant body of professional work, a clear artistic voice, and the ability to communicate their ideas in educational settings. While previous university teaching experience is not required, reviewers will look for evidence that applicants can thoughtfully engage undergraduate students and contribute to a collaborative academic community. The fellowship is open to early-career artists working in: - Architecture - Dance - Film - Music - Performance - Theater - Visual Arts - Creative Writing - Interdisciplinary artistic practice - International applicants are eligible to apply. - Applicants may apply a maximum of two times during their lifetime. Princeton Arts Fellowship Timeline Application Opens: Applications are currently open. Application Deadline: September 8, 2026 Recommendation Letters Due: September 15, 2026 Finalist Interviews: Winter 2026–2027 (by invitation) Fellowship Begins: Academic Year 2027–2028 Appointment Length: Two consecutive 10-month academic years Why The Princeton Arts Fellowship Matters Few artist fellowships combine sustained financial support, research funding, teaching experience, and full participation in a major university arts community. The Princeton Arts Fellowship provides two years for artists to expand their creative practice while developing as educators and collaborators. For many fellows, the appointment becomes a significant step toward long-term careers that move fluidly between professional artistic practice and higher education. The fellowship also places artists within one of the country’s leading interdisciplinary arts environments. Fellows work alongside faculty, students, visiting artists, and scholars while continuing to develop new projects. This combination of artistic freedom, institutional support, and teaching experience creates opportunities that extend well beyond the two-year appointment.
