The Global Leadership Adventures Arts & Letters Fellowship will push you to develop an artistic creation based on your experience on a GLA program. Whether you’re creating a short story, journal entry, short documentary film or a photographic journal, this fellowship focuses on making you grow as an artist.

While creating art might not be easy, the experiences that come from GLA programs lend an amazing inspiration for your work. Traveling to a new country or region, experiencing diverse cultures through a new perspective, adventuring with peers and helping local communities or social enterprises will give you the content and insight you need to make something not only incredible, but profoundly meaningful.

Whether you’re meeting with local artists and creatives in the field or discovering the intricacies of an unfamiliar culture, the experiences that come from being an Arts & Letters Fellow on a GLA travel program can lend amazing inspiration to your studies.

Traveling to a new country or region, experiencing diverse cultures in unique ways, adventuring with peers and helping local communities or social enterprises will give you a fresh perspective that this fellowship can help you cultivate.

The Arts & Letters Fellowship is broken up into three distinct concentration areas. Choose one of the following:

• Creative Writing
• Photography
• Videography

You will choose one of these concentration areas during your Arts & Letters Fellowship application, before you start your program. The concentration you choose will illuminate and influence your final project as a Fellow.

The Arts & Letters Fellowship is self-driven and designed for determined young creatives and storytellers. Nobody will hold your hand to make sure you complete your work.

If you’re motivated and inspired, and want to push yourself above and beyond the standard experience, the Arts & Letters Fellowship is designed for you!
