Six Major American Museums Announce Continuation and Expansion of the Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program

The Art Institute of Chicago, the High Museum of Art (High), the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), The Museum of Fine Arts in Houston (MFAH), The Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art (NAMA), and new partner institution the Philadelphia Museum of Art (PMA), are pleased to announce an additional five-year grant to continue The Andrew W. Mellon Undergraduate Curatorial Fellowship Program. The fellowship provides specialized training in the curatorial field to students across the United States who exemplify historically underrepresented groups in the curatorial field and support the goal of promoting pluralistic museums. The $3.25 million grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation is a continuation of the initial grant awarded in 2013.
