2025 CCI Artist Fellowship

The Caribbean Cultural Institute (CCI) Fellowship program fosters art projects and research that advance cultural development and scholarship in the Caribbean and its diaspora. Through research and production-based art fellowships, the program cultivates new ideas that challenge traditional conceptions of Caribbean art, generates innovative study of the region, and reflects upon the contemporary state of Caribbean art and thought. The CCI Fellowship program is intended to support artists, cultural practitioners, and scholars from the Caribbean and its diaspora whose projects would benefit from access to Pérez Art Museum Miami (PAMM) and its institutional resources.

In 2025, the CCI invites interested researchers, artists, and photographers to apply for the CCI Artist Fellowship, CCI Research Fellowship, and CCI + Women Photographers International Archive (WOPHA) Fellowship. All three programs are self-directed and will take place between September and December 2025. The exact dates of each one will depend upon the specific requirements of the project and be mutually decided upon by the awardee, the CCI team, and the partner organizations.

2025 CCI Artist Fellowship

The CCI Artist Fellowship is intended for emerging to mid-career Caribbean artists and cultural practitioners based in the Caribbean or its diaspora and working across a range of disciplines and media.

The CCI will provide institutional support as well as access to PAMM’s curatorial resources and networks.

The Artist Fellow will be hosted in Miami for up to two months and provided with accommodations, a stipend, and a studio space in collaboration with the Bakehouse Art Complex. Travel expenses to and from Miami will be covered. A production budget of up to $4,000 will be allocated depending upon the needs of the project.
