the audrey flack short-term fellowship

One fellowship will be awarded annually in support of a one-month (thirty-day) residency. Residencies must take place between June 1, 2026, and May 31, 2027.

The Audrey Flack Short-Term Fellow will be provided with a Smithsonian badge and a study carrel in SAAM’s Research and Scholars Center, located just one floor above the Archives of American Art and the American Art/Portrait Gallery Library. During their tenure, the fellow will have the chance to share their research with other SAAM fellows and attend various lunchtime seminars and professional development events. They will have access to additional, online programming during the fellowship year if they wish to participate in it.
