Paul Mellon Center Curatorial Research Grants at Yale University 2024

Curatorial Research Grants are offered annually to organizations, galleries, or museums to help towards the costs of appointing a research curator to undertake research for a specific project. The grant is an award of up to £40,000 to cover the full length of the research project. Additionally, the PMC is an educational charity that champions new ways of understanding British art history and culture. Through all areas of our work, including our Grants & Fellowships program, we promote activities that enhance and expand knowledge of British art and architecture.

Requirements for Curatorial Research Grants Qualification

Applicants are to take note of the following:

• Applications are open to international as well as UK organizations.
• The funding program supports research, educational activities, and the dissemination of knowledge in the fields of British art and architectural history, from the medieval period to the present day and across the spectrum of relevant geographical and cultural contexts. The remit is broadly defined and adapts as the interests of those working in their field change. It encompasses art made in Britain or by British artists but is not solely limited to art made, or artists from, within the geographical boundaries of the British Isles. Rather they understand the field of British art studies to encompass a broad range of subjects and topics related to the artistic and cultural histories of Britain, past and present.
• They do not offer grants and fellowships in field archaeology, the current practice of architecture, or the performing arts. Applications in the fields of photography, performance, film, and digital media will need to demonstrate their relevance to British art studies.
