Our 2026 BAC Fellowship

The BAC Fellowship is a ten-month program designed to support artists whose lives, work, and histories are shaped by the U.S.–Mexico border. Fellows take part in an immersive process that explores the region’s layered histories of migration, social justice, and cultural exchange. Grounded in border identity, the program centers community-based storytelling and empowers artists to reflect and elevate the voices of local border communities.

Please review our complete guidelines for more information with timelines of the Fellowship.

Applications are now live. Deadline is February 18, 2026.
