The Andrew W. Mellon Summer Academy and Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program at LACMA
OVERVIEW
The Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program occurs at six partnering institutions: the Art Institute of Chicago; the High Museum of Art, Atlanta; the Los Angeles County Museum of Art; the Museum of Fine Arts Houston; the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art, Kansas City; and the Philadelphia Museum of Art.
The program is organized around two components: the Summer Academy and the Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program.
The program is intended specifically for undergraduate students from historically underrepresented groups in the curatorial field and support the goal of promoting inclusive, pluralistic museums. Students must be currently enrolled at a university, college or community college, and, if selected, able to commit to two years in the program prior to graduating.
Applicants should express an interest in art, art history, or the museum field. In addition to having a strong academic record, a candidate should be able to demonstrate, through areas of study, extracurricular activities, background or other experiences, how they will contribute to the program.
