    2023 Boston Art Writing Fellowship

    Co-organized with Boston Art Review

     

    In the third iteration of the mentorship program, we're excited to announce a pivot. This shift in the program was created to address the current state of art writing, publishing, and new technologies in journalism. Together with the incredible team at Boston Art Review, we have put together the Boston Art Writing Fellowship. Focused on candidates ages 18-21, this program mentors two young voices in Boston's art scene, providing them with experiences working at an art publication and a contemporary art gallery. Our Fellows will also meet with prominent leaders at the intersection of culture and journalism, giving them invaluable insights.
