Define American Fellowship
For over 5 years, we supported immigrant artists and storytellers in their creative and professional development.
About the Fellowship
The world is moved by stories and storytellers. Culture is changed by compelling narratives.
The Define American Fellowship supported artists and storytellers who happen to be immigrants and are working in narrative art forms between 2019 and 2023. The fellows in each year’s cohort participated in workshops and conversations around: defining and broadening their audiences, demystifying career paths and opportunities, and building support for a creative practice both within their individual communities as well as in the larger national arts community.
The Define American Fellowship was made possible through a grant from the Kresge Foundation.
