Diversity Fellowships Available

American Association of Museums Offers Diversity Fellowship Program:

"The Diversity Fellowship Program is designed to assist full time students, in a museum-related course of study by providing support to attend AAM’s Annual Meetings. Diversity is a great strength of our society, there is significant disparity between the diversity of our communities, and the people who visit, work in, and lead our cultural institutions. AAM encourages museums to strive for greater inclusiveness of individuals and communities that are diverse with regard to their national origin, gender, race, culture, economic status, religion, sexual orientation, physical or cognitive ability, age, and/or family structure." For more information, or to apply, please visit the Diversity Fellowship Program site.
