Nov 1 | Deadline to apply for Arts & Social Justice Fellowship
Applications for the 2025 Arts & Social Justice Fellowship program will be accepted until November 1, 2024 at 11:59pm.
The Arts and Social Justice Fellowship (ASJF) supports youth leadership at the intersection of arts and social change. High schoolers from DC, Maryland, and Virginia attend performances at regional venues, engage in thematic workshops with mentors and their peers, and create final projects exploring issues of importance to them through media of their choosing.
Presented by Strathmore with core partner Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company, ASJF was created in 2022 as part of their co-presentation of Octavia E. Butler’s "Parable of the Sower" by Toshi Reagon and Bernice Johnson Reagon. This educational program seeks to identify the next generation of artists whose activism reflects Butler’s dynamic lineage.
There is no cost to participate. Fellows receive a $750 stipend to support the creation of their final projects and are matched with professional artist mentors.
