The application for the 2025–2026 Met Fellowship Program is open!
Each year, we cultivate a close-knit community of scholars whose intellectual interests and research collectively illuminate The Met collection, comprising artworks spanning 5,000 years of human creativity. We encourage fellows to expand on existing avenues of research and explore new ones throughout their time at the Museum.
