American Clark Art Institute Fellowship 2023–2024 (Fully Funded)

Each year, Clark offers between eleven and sixteen scholarships, the majority of which are for a single academic semester and lasting one to ten months.

International scholars, critics, curators, and museum professionals are asked to suggest activities that broaden and enhance knowledge of the visual arts and its value to culture. The Institute blends a public art gallery with a sophisticated array of academic and research pursuits, as well as a sizable library of art historical works. The discussion of the origins and nature of art takes place at Clark and around the world.
