Deadline: March 15, 2023. The Center for History and Culture of Southeast Texas and the Upper Gulf Coast invites applications for research and creative fellowships for the 2023-2024 academic year. The Center supports the production, curation, and transmission of knowledge about our region with a commitment to multicultural, interdisciplinary, collaborative, and community-focused projects. The Center encourages applications from any scholarly discipline or creative field. We are especially interested in work that considers our core geographic region or situates it within broader national, hemispheric, or global contexts. Fellows will produce specific outcomes that significantly contribute to our mission. The Center funds projects in art, environment, history, journalism, literature, music, social sciences, and other forms of scholarly inquiry or creative endeavor. Fellowships are open to scholars, creatives, advanced graduate students, and community leaders whose work contributes to the Center’s mission. Fellows may receive awards up to $5,000. If warranted, Fellows may apply for an additional year. The Center encourages applications for lesser amounts and may offer partial funding upon the recommendation of the Fellowship Jury.
