JustArts Fellowship - Application Deadline
Do you have an artistic project in mind? Are you ready to turn your passion into a project?
The JustArts Fellowship for Student Leaders in the Arts invites students to design, develop, and complete projects that enhance access to meaningful arts experiences.
The JustArts Fellowship allows students to identify challenges, propose creative solutions, and collaborate with peers and Arizona Arts mentors to bring their vision to life. Proposed projects should offer a concrete plan to address an organizational issue, problem, or concern encountered by students on the University of Arizona campus by turning it into an opportunity for change. Fellows work together to present fresh ideas, put those ideas into action, and practice new and existing skills. Impactful projects will educate, inspire, and connect members of Arizona Arts, the broader U of A campus, and the Southern Arizona community.
What are the benefits?
- Students receive a $6,000 award and a budget to execute their project.
- Additional $1,500 in supply/execution budget.
- Students earn course credit while learning new skills.
- Students gain holistic mentorship and networks of support.
Who is eligible?

- Students are required to enroll in FA491 or FA591 for one--, two--, or three-course credits per semester. The course meets Fridays, 11:00 am – 1:00 pm, every other week during the fall and spring semesters to support collaborative work across Fellows’ projects.
