The National Leaders of Color Fellowship (LoCF) is accepting Mid Atlantic region applications through Sunday, October 13th! LoCF is a transformative leadership development experience curated by WESTAF in order to establish multicultural leadership in the creative and cultural sector. By partnering with the other United States Regional Arts Organizations (USRAOs) the program has expanded nationwide and its mission has become a national endeavor.
Mid Atlantic Arts is pleased to provide support for the Fellows from the 10 states, territories, districts, and commonwealth’s that make up our region – DC, DE, MD, NJ, NY, PA, PR, USVI, VA, and WV.
The Fellowship will take place completely online, typically from late fall through early summer of the subsequent year. During this no-cost eight-month Fellowship, fellows receive access to specialists in the field, strategic learning objectives determined to deepen thought on anti-racist and culturally-oriented leadership practices, and national-level network and cohort building. Upon completion of this program, participants transition to alumni status and have opportunities to collaborate with the USRAO in their region as advisors, funding panelists, and/or other professional capacities.
