About the Fellowship
The USC Annenberg/Getty Arts Journalism Program is a three week, mid-career education Fellowship for six arts, culture and entertainment editors, producers and writers from online, print, radio and television. Typically one to two of the Fellows come from outside the United States. Journalists who cover the visual and performing arts, architecture, literature and pop culture – and who own these beats either as generalists or specialists – are welcome to apply. Staff, freelancers and self-employed Web journalists are are also encouraged.
Based in Los Angeles, the Fellowship is a total immersion experience that includes attending as many as 23 performances, art exhibitions and architectural sites. Participants will visit artists’ private studios, rehearsal rooms, architectural firms and art schools. The idea is to provide unusual behind-the-scene experiences that engage the USC Annenberg/Getty Fellows in frank and often off-the-record conversations with artists and the people who produce, curate, report on, and/or write policy on arts and urban culture.
