Applications are now open for the Artivism Fellowship 2024
The Artivism Fellowship is a 7 month incubation process that provides two participating artist-activists the tools and resources to blend artistry, law, policy, and community engagement to leverage their creative talents to drive meaningful systemic change. This fellowship includes project and financial support, mentorship, networking opportunities, and participation in our Theater of Change course at Columbia Law School. Throughout the program, fellows will be partnered with an advocacy organization, where they will gain valuable insights into the inner workings of the organization, ongoing campaigns, and actively contribute by creating a compelling piece of art that activates the advocacy organization's goals and policy aims.
