Climate Futures Artist Fellowship

What social impact will climate change have on future generations? How will these changes take shape within our cultural and artistic spaces?

The Climate Futures Artist Fellowship invites 2 artists to use any art form to imagine a future where art and climate intersect in profound and meaningful ways.

The fellowship includes:

  • $15,000 funding
  • desk space at the Library for 12 months
  • access to collections and Library staff expertise.

Funding is based on approximately 3 months of work in the Library. This can be either continuous or broken up over the year, and you’ll have access to your office for the full 12 months.
