Old Salem Museum-Architectural Fellowships

The fellowship is directed toward post-graduate young or new scholars in the field of architectural history. It can cover a variety of research activities; examples include architectural surveys, historic structure reports, and biographies. Fieldwork and recording projects are encouraged.

The principal time period to be covered under this fellowship program shall be prior to 1860. Although it is acknowledged that certain studies, especially biographies, may well extend beyond that cutoff date, the primary focus of work funded under this program should be in the pre-1860 period.

The geographical areas of eligibility are Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Mississippi, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Louisiana.

Applications can be submitted at any time. An initial telephone inquiry is recommended.
