Bronx Museum: Artist in the Marketplace (AIM) Fellowship

The Bronx Museum’s AIM (Artist in the Marketplace) Fellowship is a nine‑month professional‑development program designed to accelerate the careers of promising artists based in New York City. Each year the museum selects fourteen artists through a competitive open‑call application. Fellows attend expert‑led seminars covering finance, law, media management, and writing, and participate in a group exhibition at the museum. The program is non‑residential and offers no stipend, but provides free professional‑development resources, mentorship, and exhibition opportunities. Applications for the 2027 cohort are open until March 15 2027. Eligibility is limited to artists residing in NYC. The fellowship does not include housing or travel support.
