Get matched →The NARS Foundation has opened applications for its 2026 Curatorial Fellowship, a program aimed at emerging curators interested in expanding their practice through direct engagement with international artists. The selected fellow will work closely with artists-in-residence and the NARS team to develop exhibitions and strengthen the institution's residency program while fostering new perspectives and exchanges across diverse practices, disciplines, and cultural contexts.
Over the course of six months, you will work with each of two cohorts of the International Residency Program. The program includes individual studio visits with each resident artist, development of a cohesive curatorial framework for group exhibitions, press release writing for each show, and at least two days per week presence in the studio space and NARS office.
Submit an online application with CV, artist bio (300 words), residency proposal/goals (400 words), and up to 10 work samples (images and/or audio/video files in JPEG format no larger than 1000 pixels @ 72 dpi, or video links).
