# Creative Fellowship: Digital Practice

**Hosted by:** The Wolfsonian–FIU

**Type:** Fellowship | **Location:** Miami Beach, FL, United States | **Deadline:** May 31, 2026

## About This Program

> "Digital Practice — animation, moving image, generative media, sound-based work, and experimental formats engaging the Wolfsonian collection (modernity and visual culture, 1850–1950)"

Wolfsonian creative fellowships invite artists of all kinds—visual artists, designers, performers, writers, filmmakers, and musicians—to immerse themselves in the Wolfsonian collection and draw visual, conceptual, or storytelling inspiration from its wide range of historical materials. Grounded in the museum's exploration of modernity and visual culture from 1850 to 1950, the fellowship encourages creative research that connects historical ideas to contemporary practice. For the 2026–27 cycle, fellows engage with digital media to explore how digital tools and platforms can activate the Wolfsonian collection for contemporary audiences. During a 2-week residency, fellows engage closely with staff, objects, and the resources of the Knight Labs to develop concepts for new work informed by their research. Proposals are encouraged for projects involving, but not limited to, animation, moving image, generative media, sound-based work, or other experimental formats. The Wolfsonian may also commission a fellow to realize an original digital artwork inspired by their research.
