The Lighthouse Works Fellowship Program is designed to support the creation of new works of art, dance, literature, and music. Artists, writers, choreographers, and composers at any stage of their careers are encouraged to apply through our online application system. Applicants are required to fill out an application form, submit work samples, attach a CV and work sample statement, and remit a $25 application fee.

While our staff reviews applications for completeness, a jury of experts in each artist’s field evaluates the applications and identifies the finalists. Finalists will be invited for phone interviews, and all applicants will be informed of the committee’s decision by the notification date for the relevant application period. Artistic excellence is the primary criterion for acceptance into the Fellowship Program.

Note: Applicants are encouraged to read fully the guidelines below. Applications that fail to conform to these guidelines will be rejected unread.
