Since 2010, The Center for Craft, Creativity & Design has
supported the careers of emerging curators with an interest in contemporary
craft through its Windgate Museum Internship Program. This year,
CCCD is proud to announce a new initiative that will support curators by giving
them resources, space, and technical assistance to nurture their talents.
The Curatorial Fellowship is a
yearlong program created to give emerging craft curators a platform to explore
and test new ideas about craft. Three Curatorial Fellows will be selected to
fully develop and mount their proposed exhibition in CCCD's Benchspace Gallery
& Workshop, located in Asheville, North Carolina, during the 2017
exhibition season. The Curatorial Fellows will work with Assistant Director
Marilyn Zapf to produce the exhibition, develop didactic material and an
exhibition catalog, and deliver a curatorial talk.
Selected curators will receive at no cost:
- $5,000 honorarium (50% in advance, 50% upon completion of project)
- $8,000 exhibition budget
- Expenses paid Summer 2016 site visit to CCCD in Asheville, NC
