Museum of Contemporary African Diasporian Arts, Inc.

The Museum of Contemporary African Diasporian Arts' Emerging Curators Fellowship Program will offer four individuals the opportunity to learn the practical skills involved in the curation of exhibits. Two fellows will complete the program in each year of the two-year project, working full-time as research and administrative assistants to the museum's director of exhibitions. They will be given substantive opportunities to participate in exhibition research, development, label-writing, loan processing, publicity, and programming and will curate their own exhibitions toward the end of the program. In an effort to support successful future careers in museum practice, the project will also involve additional professional development for the fellows through site visits to other museums to meet with curators and participation in professional conferences.
