Fellowships to Ohio individual African American artists in eligible regions to develop visual arts projects and participate in outreach activities that benefit the local community. Eligible applicants must be professional artists who produce work that is rooted in cultural traditions, heritage, and storytelling. Artists must reside in Franklin County.
The Greater Columbus Arts Council, in partnership with the Columbus Museum of Art, offers a 90-day artist fellowship and unrestricted award for a local professional African American visual artist residing in Franklin County. The fellowship is intended to provide an artist with the gift of time to develop a work in progress and connect to resources related to the work of MacArthur Fellow Aminah Brenda Lynn Robinson.
The fellowship requires the artist to participate in three community outreach activities and actively create work during the 90 days. In addition, the artist may be connected to resources and people with knowledge of Aminah’s history and work, as well as those that live in the Shepard and Poindexter communities.
There is also an option for an exhibit or public presentation, if desired and possible.
