Cubitt Curatorial Fellowship

The Cubitt Curatorial Fellowship –formerly Curatorial Bursary, now in its 10th edition- is a unique opportunity for research and curatorial experimentation in the field of visual arts, based on an 18-month residency, the only such scheme in the UK. Since its inception in 2000, it has pioneered an individual model and developed into a major platform for curatorial development, leading Cubitt’s reputation as an experimental, artist-led institution for nurturing, showcasing and reimagining emerging practice.

The Fellowship provides an opportunity for learning and for professional development; the Fellow crucially delivers an individual perspective through a curatorial programme that sits in-between the artist-led and the institutional. Responding to the challenges and requirements of a small, independent organisation active on the London and international scene for the past 25 years, the Fellow significantly contributes to its growth and long-term vision while furthering its legacy and institutional mission.

The Cubitt Curatorial Fellowship has been regularly supported by Outset Contemporary Art Fund  since 2010- providing a more accessible and substantial opportunity within the sector.
