Viet Voices is excited to announce an open call for San Diego’s first AAPI Emerging Artist Fellowship, an opportunity for Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) artists to engage with the art community and develop their professional practice from April to July 2025. The fellowship inspires fellows to contemplate their connection to their ancestral identity – homeland, language, and cultural memory – as themes for dreaming towards posterity. Viet Voices questions what continuity in community looks like, and how to ritualize (re / un)learning environments. They seek contemporary artists who conceptualize beyond the commercial and challenge censorship to experiment with the multiplicity of being.
About the Fellowship
The AAPI Emerging Artist Fellowship is designed to support early-career artists who identify as AAPI and are at a pivotal stage in their artistic journey. The fellowship provides a platform for the development and presentation of new work while also offering professional and leadership development opportunities to foster future success in the arts.
