The Peace Studio Fellowship

A year-long fellowship program that aims to serve as an incubator for the next generation of peacebuilding leaders. The fellowship trains 7 artists and 7 journalists from historically under-resourced communities across the United States in the Peace Studio curriculum: “Skills for Creative Peacebuilding.” Bringing together a diverse group of creatives with one common cause: to build peace, fellows receive $10,000 and ongoing support to produce a unique peacebuilding project that heals existing divisions within their community. All fellows are paired with a respective artist or journalist to collaborate on their peacebuilding projects. We believe artists and journalists have different sets of skills and expertise and when brought together, all ideas reach new heights. Pairs serve as resources and thought partners for one another as both have stakes in the story they are telling.
