Georgia O’Keeffe Museum Research Center
   
American Modernism (1890–present):art, architecture, literature, music, and photography
   
The Georgia O’Keeffe Museum Research Center, a component of the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum, sponsors research in American Modernism (1890–present) by awarding six scholarships annually to qualified historians (both predoctoral and postdoctoral) in the fields of art, architecture, literature, music, and photography, and to museum or other professionals who wish to have or extend curatorial experience. Located in downtown Santa Fe, one block from the Museum, the Research Center
provides office space for scholars, an archive of materials relating to O’Keeffe and her contemporaries, and a research library that includes the books from O’Keeffe’s personal library at her Ghost Ranch house, where O’Keeffe lived and worked part of each year from the mid-1930s through the early 1980s. Scholars proposing topics that specifically address O’Keeffe and her art have access to the extensive art and archival materials in the Museum and Research Center collections as well as to the Ghost Ranch house, which is a component of the Research Center. The Research Center’s program of lectures, symposia (on-site and virtual), colloquia, conferences, informal discussions, and publications complements the Museum’s education, exhibition, lecture, and performance programs. Scholars are invited to participate in these programs and in the rich cultural milieu of the city and its institutions. Scholarships are awarded for three- to twelve-month periods, are not renewable, and cannot be extended. Scholars receive allowances for housing and travel and are expected to be in residence during the scholarship period. The application deadline is the Monday following Thanksgiving and awards are announced the following year in mid-March.
