The Queens Museum (QM) is pleased to offer a major new opportunity for visual artists: The QM-Jerome Foundation Fellowship Program for Emerging Artists in New York City. Operating in conjunction with the Museum’s new artist services program, the Fellowship Program for Emerging Artists in NYC will annually award three visual artists a grant of $20,000 each, an artist’s project at the Museum with an accompanying publication, as well as provide professional development and a mentorship with the QM Director of Exhibitions.
Fellowship eligibility is limited to emerging visual artists living in New York City who are working in traditional or new media, and who meet the following guidelines:
Queens Museum definition of emerging artist:
The Queens Museum defines an emerging artist as one who is at the dawn of their public career. The emerging artist has completed his or her studies, but has not had solo exhibitions at established commercial galleries or institutions or received major grants. The category also includes artists who are well beyond their studies, and may have participated in group exhibitions but have not received extensive press or market recognition. These artists may have exhibited their work in other countries on a limited basis, but have not had major exhibition opportunities in the US or in New York in particular.
Jury:
A three-person jury will review applications and make a selection of Fellow participants. The jury will be made up of the Queens Museum Director of Exhibitions and two other arts professionals, one of whom will be based outside New York City.
To apply:
The deadline to apply for the QM-Jerome Foundation Fellowship has passed.
