ABOUT THE PROJECT FREEWAY FELLOWSHIP

The Project Freeway Fellowship Program provides support for Houston-area artists and creative individuals to create socially-engaged or community-based artistic practices within their own neighborhoods. The Project Freeway Fellowship was developed in response to the rapid growth and diversification of the city of Houston and DiverseWorks’ desire to support innovative artists’ projects that engage all Houstonians, especially in neighborhoods outside of the city center.

Throughout the six-month Fellowship, the selected artists will meet with DW staff and other artists, activists, and arts professionals to help in the development of artistic strategies that focus on sustaining the arts in the community, advocacy, and social change. This Fellowship is research-driven and supports the development and presentation of a site-specific project within each Fellows’ neighborhood.

Two applicants will be selected as Fellows who will each be awarded a $5,000 honorarium with additional support for production and materials.
