Writing for Art History Grants and Fellowships

The Professional Development Committee would like to invite you to a grant writing workshop with Tamara Sears (Grad Program Director) on January 20 at noon. Writing for grant and fellowship applications is a learned skill and usually does not come easy to many of us. During this workshop, Dr Sears will cover strategies for developing winning applications that will be useful for short-term grants (think libraries, archives, travel grants, from a week to several months) and long term fellowships like the Kress, CASVA, Fulbright, etc.. (one year, two year, three year) Whether you are applying for funding this year, two years from now, or several years in the future, the workshop will be helpful to all of you! It will also help you start thinking about how to frame your research for a broad audience, how to market yourself as an academic, and give you possible funding opportunities to consider for the future. This will be a hybrid event. The committee will provide lunch for those of you who would like to attend in person—please email us to let me know if you 1. will be there in person and 2. if you have dietary restrictions so we can plan accordingly. See you all soon! Margo and Emma (emma.osle@rutgers.edu)

January 20th, Noon (In the Art History Graduate Student Lounge and on Zoom – Hybrid)
