    [Virtual] Assembling Voices information session #2

    Wednesday May 17, 2023
    6:00pm

Assembling Voices is now accepting applications for its 2023-2024 cohort. Join us for an information session about the Assembling Voices Fellowship.

About Assembling Voices

Assembling Voices is a Fellowship for artists, writers, scholars, journalists, performers, activists, workers, and others with compelling ideas for public initiatives that advance our mission—catalyzing conversations that lead to more just, equitable, and democratic societies.

Over the course of a year, Assembling Voices Fellows develop compelling ideas for public initiatives that bring people together around issues of democracy, equity, and trust.

Fellows are free to conceive and execute public programming as they envision it. Past fellows have built programming with a variety of innovative forms, including a home movie archive, a fashion show, and a community photography event. Some of the initiatives we support are brand new; others are initiatives that seek to achieve greater scale and depth with our support.

Incite supports these initiatives by facilitating administrative and intellectual support, including hosting fellows in New York City for tailor-made training and collaboration with Columbia staff and affiliates. Incite awards Fellows with $20,000 in income support and $5,000 in initiative support.

When selecting Fellows, we prioritize initiatives that are innovative in design, reach diverse audiences, address community-identified and community-specific needs, and show a way to post-Fellowship sustainability and growth.
