Don't forget to apply! Application deadline for the "Toward Equity in Publishing" is on Wednesday, 9/15.
We are proud to support this new initiative designed to remediate the inequitable conditions that impede publication in the field of American art history.
Through editorial mentorship and workshops, the program will demystify scholarly publication processes and help scholars revise manuscripts for submission and publication.
Who should apply—
Unpublished graduate students, untenured faculty, junior museum staff, and independent scholars who are producing research on American art history and related visual culture topics.
Priority will be given to applicants whose experiences will broaden diversity in the field, including those with a personal history of overcoming adversity, first-generation college or graduate-school attendees, and those who have not received institutional funding (fellowships, grants, scholarships, or paid leave) in the past two years.
This program is being launched by the American Art Journal which is co-published by the Smithsonian American Art Museum and University of Chicago Press
