Founded in 1980, the AIM Fellowship (formerly known as the “Artist in Marketplace”) is The Bronx Museum’s flagship incubator and career accelerator program for the most promising artists based in NYC. The Bronx Museum selects 14 artists for the program annually through a competitive open call application process. AIM Fellows are awarded a nine-month practicum led by a distinguished faculty of experts who cover finance, law, media management, and writing, among other subjects vital to maintaining and growing a successful career as an artist.

Site:Brooklyn Gallery is dedicated to exhibiting the current practice of contemporary artists. Site:Brooklyn is going online with a new series of interactive exhibitions. The human hand possesses a particular intelligence. From the earliest carved tools to the studio traditions of ceramics, glass, textile, and woodwork, artists have long understood that artistic creation comes from a synthesis of mental and physical labor. In an era increasingly shaped by mechanical and digital reproduction, the handmade object points towards something different: a focus on touch and the material process. For Handmade, SiteBrooklyn is looking for works, across all mediums, that foreground the artist’s hand as both process and subject — the point where thought becomes physical, direct, and irreversible action.

The Inaugural Ming Fay Research Fellowship supports the production of original, archives-based scholarship on Ming Fay (1943–2025), whose multidisciplinary practice bridged sculpture, drawing, installation, ecology, and transnational cultural histories. Proposals may address, but are not limited to: ecology and environmental thought; transnational identity and migration; Asian diasporic histories; material experimentation and sculptural practice; intersections of art, science, and spirituality; nature as mythology and cultural symbolism in art; Downtown New York art networks and artist collectives; and public art and site-specific installations.

They invite artists to submit work for an upcoming group exhibition exploring the diverse realities of mental health and mental illness.

This show aims to create a supportive, reflective space where personal narratives, emotional landscapes, and unseen struggles can be expressed through visual art.

They welcome both emerging and established artists whose work sparks dialogue, fosters empathy, and challenges stigma around mental well-being.

What they are looking for:

- Photography, paintings, drawings, mixed media, video, poetry, sculpture.
- Creatives that reside in the United States. Due to potential shipping complications they are not considering work from outside the U.S.
- Work that comes from authentic self-exploration, no commercial or client based work
