Research & Curatorial Fellowship Open Call – Culture&

About the organization

Culture& is a London-based arts and education charity established in 1987 (originally as the Minority Arts Advisory Service) to address the structural exclusion of Black, Asian, and minority ethnic practitioners from the UK's cultural institutions. Its founding ethos is one of critical intervention: to create spaces where underrepresented voices can shape curatorial discourse, research, and public programming. The Research & Curatorial Fellowship Open Call reflects this mission by offering a supported platform for emerging and mid-career curators, researchers, and artists to develop projects that engage with questions of race, representation, and institutional change. The fellowship is not a prize but a process-oriented opportunity, emphasising mentorship, peer exchange, and the production of new knowledge.

Application guidance

Applicants should approach this fellowship with a clear, critically informed project proposal that demonstrates an understanding of Culture&'s mission and the broader debates around race, curation, and institutional practice. Avoid generic statements about diversity; instead, articulate specific research questions, methodologies, and potential outcomes. The selection panel values proposals that are feasible within the fellowship's timeframe and resources, and that show awareness of the applicant's own positionality. It is advisable to review past fellows' work on the Culture& website to gauge the expected depth and scope. Applications are typically accepted via an online form, and late or incomplete submissions are not considered.
