America’s Artistic, Cultural, Social, and Intellectual History from the 1600s into the Twentieth Century
Winterthur Museum, Garden, and Library invites applications for residential research fellowships. The Winterthur Library houses a collection of archival materials, imprints, periodicals, and visual resources to support the study of America’s artistic, cultural, social, and intellectual history from the 1600s into the twentieth century. Object collections include 85,000 domestic artifacts made or used in America before 1860. Winterthur fellowships fund academic, museum, and independent scholars. National Endowment for the Humanities Fellowships are available to scholars pursuing advanced research for four to twelve months. Lois F. McNeil Dissertation Fellowships are available to students pursuing dissertation research for one or two semesters. Short-term Winterthur Research Fellowships fund scholars for one to three months. Scholars live in a furnished residence on Winterthur’s grounds and have twenty-four-hour access to the library’s circulating collection as well as borrowing privileges at the nearby Morris Library of the University of Delaware. Completed applications must be received by January 15; awards will be announced in early April.
