COLLABORATIVE CURATORIAL FELLOWSHIP
VAE is excited to present another round of our Collaborative Curatorial Fellowship! This is your chance to be PAID to do your own artistic research and curation, in order to make your boldest idea into a reality. The selected Fellow (or collaborative team) will be awarded a $5,000 stipend to spend six months building their own creative project with the full support of VAE’s staff, board, resources, and network! In addition to their stipend, the Fellow will have a $5,000 budget to produce their project, pay artists and steering committee members, and create programming.
Applications for the 2024 cycle open on Friday, April 5!
Rolling Deadlines
These opportunities will be open indefinitely and submissions are checked on a bi-weekly basis.

VAE is seeking a lineup of on-call photographers to document a bustling program of upcoming exhibitions and events. Once you’ve applied using the form below, your information will be kept on file via an on-call database. If you’re the right fit for an upcoming opportunity, we will reach out to you on an individual basis.
We’ve been keeping an eye out for you. We've come to realize that many talented artists fall to the wayside as the result of the unintentional limitations of this practice. Here is our remedy!
