Suzanne Fiol Curatorial Fellowship

$3,000 stipend + $10,000 program budget + Professional mentorship

ISSUE Project Room invites applications for the Suzanne Fiol Curatorial Fellowship, named after its visionary founder. The fellow receives a $3,000 personal stipend and up to $10,000 in dedicated financial support for programming. Over one year, the fellow receives mentorship from the ISSUE team to develop and produce a series of public events. Support includes marketing, technical coordination, and access to ISSUE’s venue and technical resources. The program aims to support emerging curators in bringing new, experimental performances to the Brooklyn art community. Applicants must be based in New York City and demonstrate a commitment to contemporary and avant-garde practices. The fellowship concludes with the presentation of a curated season or specific project cycle.
