The Queens Museum’s (QM) In Situ Artist Fellowship is a two-year fellowship (October 2022–September 2024) for three artists to receive rent-free studio space and an annualized salaried position at 45,000 USD per year with full benefits. Artists will develop their practice in collaboration with specific areas of the Museum’s work and Queens constituencies, prioritizing co-creation, relationship building, research and ambitious experimentation. Artists will also develop a solo exhibition to open in Spring 2024.
Eligible artists will engage with one of the following programs and research areas: the La Jornada and Queens Museum Cultural Food Pantry, the Queens Teens Institute For Art & Social Justice, QM’s Archives & Collection, and the QM Children's Museum.
Eligible artists must: have a strong record of artistic work and be committed to social and public practice. In Situ Artist Fellows must reside in NYC for the entire 2-year duration of the fellowship and be present at the Museum minimally 3 weekdays per week.

The QM-Jerome Foundation Fellowship for Emerging Artists will grant two visual artists 20,000 USD each, individual studio space, professional development consultations, and close mentorship from QM staff members working toward the artists’ projects. Fellows will have access to individual studios from October 2022 through September 2023. These one-year fellowships will culminate in solo project exhibitions at QM in Fall 2023.
The QM-Jerome Foundation Fellowship is open to emerging visual artists living in the five boroughs of New York City. QM defines an emerging artist as one who is at the beginning of their public career. Eligible artists have completed their studies, but have not had solo exhibitions at commercial galleries or public institutions. Artists will have not yet received major grant funding for their work.
